Cryosurgery planning using bubble packing in 3D.
As part of an ongoing project to develop automated tools for cryosurgery planning, the current study focuses on the development of a 3D bubble packing method. A proof-of-concept for the new method is demonstrated on five prostate models, reconstructed from ultrasound images. The new method is a modification of an established method in 2D. Ellipsoidal bubbles are packed in the volume of the pros...
متن کاملComputerized Planning of Cryosurgery Using Bubble Packing: An Experimental Validation on a Phantom Material.
The current study focuses on experimentally validating a planning scheme based on the so-called bubble-packing method. This study is a part of an ongoing effort to develop computerized planning tools for cryosurgery, where bubble packing has been previously developed as a means to find an initial, uniform distribution of cryoprobes within a given domain; the so-called force-field analogy was th...
متن کاملWall Effect in 3D Simulation Of Same Sized Particles Packing
In this paper, the effects of container size on the porosity of random loose packing of mono size particles have been investigated using an Event Dynamics (ED) based model. Simultaneous effects of square container walls on particles packing and their order are also investigated. Our simulation results indicate higher container size will increase the total packing factor and high density regions...
متن کاملComputerized planning for multiprobe cryosurgery using a force-field analogy.
Cryosurgery is the destruction of undesired biological tissues by freezing. For internal organs, multiple cryoprobes are inserted into the tissue with the goal of maximizing cryoinjury within a predefined target region, while minimizing cryoinjury to the surrounding tissues. The objective of this study is to develop a computerized planning tool to determine the best locations to insert the cryo...
متن کاملComputerized planning of prostate cryosurgery using variable cryoprobe insertion depth.
The current study presents a computerized planning scheme for prostate cryosurgery using a variable insertion depth strategy. This study is a part of an ongoing effort to develop computerized tools for cryosurgery. Based on typical clinical practices, previous automated planning schemes have required that all cryoprobes be aligned at a single insertion depth. The current study investigates the ...
