Neurosurgical tools and techniques--modern image-guided surgery.
Cushing and other great neurosurgeons made their mental preparations for surgical procedures through extensive, beautiful drawings. Three-dimensional visualization was in those days supported through interpretation of pneumoencephalograms with displacements of structures indicating where a space-occupying process might be located. Today this visualization necessary for each neurosurgeon is part...
متن کاملDesign of a neurosurgical procedure model for multimodal image-guided surgery
In multimodal image-guided surgery, surgeons have to manage large amounts of information (i.e. images) to plan and perform the surgical procedure. To facilitate management we attempted to model the procedure as a set of distinct steps with a UML class diagram. To each step we assigned a list of relevant image entities extracted from multimodal images and an action describing the purpose of the ...
متن کاملImage-guided surgery and therapy
I am pleased to see the publication of this very novel issue. It brings together in one volume the role modern imaging has to play in surgery and radiotherapy. Certainly in functional neurosurgery imaging has transformed the way it is performed. In its first blossoming in the 1950s, patients were fixed in a stereotactic frame, contrast was injected into the ventricles and x-rays were taken of t...
متن کاملImage-guided surgery.
Recent advances in image guided surgery are changing the manner in which surgeons are able to execute difficult procedures. By building detailed, patient-specific models of anatomy, and augmenting those models with other information, such as functional properties, the surgeon can better plan her procedure to optimally extract target tissue while avoiding nearby critical structures. By registeri...
متن کاملImage-guided robotic surgery.
Medical image processing leads to an improvement in patient care by guiding the surgical gesture. Three-dimensional models of patients that are generated from computed tomographic scans or magnetic resonance imaging allow improved surgical planning and surgical simulation that offers the opportunity for a surgeon to train the surgical gesture before performing it for real. These two preoperativ...
