SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING SURGICAL PLANNING AND GUIDANCE WITH THREE-DIMENSIONAL VISUALIZATION
20220175455 · 2022-06-09 · ·

A system for providing surgical planning and guidance with three-dimensional visualization is disclosed. In particular, the system obtains an image set of an anatomy of interest of a subject, and renders the image set on a user interface using volume rendering. Notably, the system accomplishes the foregoing without generating surface models or conducting bone contouring. The system may, during generation of an implant plan for implanting an implant onto the anatomy of interest, suggest landmark points in the volume rendered image set. Once the landmark points are confirmed, the system may facilitate implant positioning via implant controls. The system conducts a registration process to confirm a match between the physical anatomy of interest and the information contained in volume-rendered image set in the plan. If there is a match, the system may facilitate performance of a surgical procedure for implanting the implant onto the anatomy of interest of the subject.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR ELECTRODE ORIENTATION DETERMINATION IN DEEP BRAIN STIMULATION (DBS)

The present disclosure provides systems and methods for estimating an orientation of an implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead. Such methods include generating an initial image dataset, down-sampling a respective image or adding noise to images of the subset of the initial image dataset, and re-slicing at least a subset of the modified image dataset along an alternative primary imaging axis, to generate an integrated image dataset. The method also include partitioning the integrated image dataset into a preliminary training image dataset and a testing image dataset, and re-sizing at least a subset of the preliminary training image dataset with a localized field of view around a depicted DBS lead, to generate a training image dataset. The method further includes training a machine-learning model using the training image dataset, and executing the trained machine-learning model to estimate, during a DBS implantation procedure, an orientation of a subject implanted DBS lead.

A camera tracking system for computer assisted navigation during surgery. The camera tracking system includes a processor operative to receive streams of video frames from tracking cameras which image a plurality of physical objects arranged as a reference array. For each of the physical objects imaged in a sequence of the video frames, that processor determines a set of coordinates for the physical object over the sequence of the video frames. For each of the physical objects, the processor generates an arithmetic combination of the set of coordinates for the physical object. The processor generates an array template identifying coordinates of the physical objects based on the arithmetic combinations of the sets of coordinates for the physical objects, and tracks pose of the physical objects of the reference array over time based on comparison of the array template to the reference array imaged in the streams of video frames.

SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR CALIBRATION OF X-RAY IMAGES

Certain embodiments provide a system for calibrating an X-ray image. The system may receive an X-ray image of an anatomical part of a patient. The system may further receive a 3-D surface scan of a surface of the patient where the anatomical part is located. The system may derive a measurement correction to apply to measurements of the X-ray image based on the 3-D surface scan. The measurement correction may account for: an orientation of the patient with respect to the X-ray detector plate, a first distance between the patient and the detector plate, or a second distance between the patient and an X-ray source used to generate the X-ray image. The system may further determine a corrected measurement of the anatomical part based on the measurement correction and a measurement taken from the X-ray image.
