Semi-automated Preoperative Resection Planning
نویسنده
چکیده
(57) ABSTRACT Preoperative resection planning is assisted by a computer. Rather than rely on interpolation of the user input, a graph of interconnections is used. The user inputs one or more polylines on one or more two-dimensional vieWs. The polylines are used to assign resection and remnant seeds With a band of unassigned locations. The 2D seeds are used With the graph of interconnections to assign different voxels in the volume, including the unassigned locations, as being part of the resection volume or part of the remnant volume.

Comparison of Pre/Post-Operative CT Image Volumes to Preoperative Digitization of Partial Hepatectomies: A Feasibility Study in Surgical Validation
Preoperative planning combined with image-guidance has shown promise towards increasing the accuracy of liver resection procedures. The purpose of this study was to validate one such preoperative planning tool for four patients undergoing hepatic resection. Preoperative computed tomography (CT) images acquired before surgery were used to identify tumor margins and to plan the surgical approach ...
متن کاملUltrasound-based navigation system incorporating preoperative planning for liver surgery
An overview of the current status of the development of our navigation system for resection of liver tumours is given. The system is based on intraoperative 3D ultrasound volumes for image-guided navigation of surgical instruments. It is also possible to perform a virtual 3D planning of the tumour resection and to non-rigidly register these preoperative models to the intraoperative ultrasound v...

Background Recent advances in image-based computer assistance in the last ten years allow computerized preoperative simulations, giving a lot of advantages in the preoperative surgical planning of resections. Preoperative simulation represents the prerequisite for navigated liver surgery. The aim of this study is to describe elementary technical aspects of a navigated approach to liver resectio...

Augmentation of endoscopic video with preoperative or intraoperative image data [e.g., planning data and/or anatomical segmentations defined in computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR)], can improve navigation, spatial orientation, confidence, and tissue resection in skull base surgery, especially with respect to critical neurovascular structures that may be difficult to visualize i...
متن کاملInteraction Techniques and Vessel Analysis for Preoperative Planning in Liver Surgery
We present visualization and interaction techniques for preoperative planning in oncologic liver surgery. After several image processing steps a 3d visualization of all relevant anatomic and pathologic structures is created. In this 3d visualization a surgeon can flexibly specify resection regions with resection tools which can be applied selectively to different structures. The combination of ...
