چکیده

Stent implantation for coronary disease treatment is a highly important minimally invasive technique that avoids surgery interventions. In order to assure the success of such an intervention, it is very important to determine the real length of the lesion as exactly as possible. Currently, lesion measures are performed directly from the angiography without considering the system projective parameters or, alternatively, from the 3D reconstruction obtained from a correspondence of points defined by the physicians. In this paper, we present a method for 3D vessel reconstruction from biplane images by means of deformable models. In particular, we study the known shortcoming of point-based 3D vessel reconstruction (no intersection of projective beams) and illustrate that using snakes the reconstruction error is minimal. We validate our method by a computer-generated phantom, a real phantom and coronary vessels.

3D Vessel Reconstruction from Biplane Angiograms using Snakes

In this paper, we propose a physics-based model to segment and reconstruct coronary vessels from biplane angiograms. We use the snake technique to model the vessel, the snake deforms in space to adjust its projections to the image data. In this way, segmentation and 3 0 reconstruction are unified into the same procedure assuring that only plausible vessel shapes will be detected. The method is ...

Toward Fluoroscopic Shape Reconstruction for Control of Steerable Medical Devices

Control of surgical continuum robot manipulators and steerable needles requires accurate real-time sensing of tip position and/or shaft shape. Medical image feedback provides the most straightforward and widely available method of measuring device and clinical target positions and shapes during insertion or tissue manipulation. In this paper we present a method for automatic robot/needle curve ...

3D Reconstruction of Coronary Artery using Biplane Angiography

In this paper, we present a new method for the 3D reconstruction and visualization of coronary arteries in biplane angiography. The proposed method performs direct reconstruction of 3D coronary artery pathways without computing the 2D or 3D vessel centerlines. A front propagation algorithm is used to reconstruct the coronary artery pathways in 3D space. Starting from one or more 3D points, the ...

A method for 3D reconstruction of coronary arteries using biplane angiography and intravascular ultrasound images.

The aim of this study is to describe a new method for the three-dimensional reconstruction of coronary arteries and its quantitative validation. Our approach is based on the fusion of the data provided by intravascular ultrasound images (IVUS) and biplane angiographies. A specific segmentation algorithm is used for the detection of the regions of interest in intravascular ultrasound images. A n...

True 3-dimensional reconstruction of coronary arteries in patients by fusion of angiography and IVUS (ANGUS) and its quantitative validation.

BACKGROUND True 3D reconstruction of coronary arteries in patients based on intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) may be achieved by fusing angiographic and IVUS information (ANGUS). The clinical applicability of ANGUS was tested, and its accuracy was evaluated quantitatively. METHODS AND REUSLTS: In 16 patients who were investigated 6 months after stent implantation, a sheath-based catheter was used...
