Project Description

Objective

  • Use ultrasound to verify proper position of mandibular condyle during orthognatic surgery

Approach, Plan

  • Use tracking to create 3D ultrasound image and register it with preop CT

Progress

  • Preliminary results available
  • Paper submitted to a MICCAI/AECAI2015 workshop.

Meeting goals

Project week goals are discussions for improvement of

  • 3D reconstruction algorithm parameters (minor improvement)
  • Ultrasound image post-processing (no improvement)
  • Scanning aspects related to repeatability (important new information)
  • Bone segmentation considerations (important new insights)
