|
The project consists in a reliable and time-efficient pre-operative path planner for steerable catheters, intended to be used in neurosurgical applications. The algorithm estimates a pathway from an entry to a target point within the 3D space defined by the brain volume in accordance to specific optimality parameters and constraints, as the geometric and kynodynamic characteristics of the catheter, the distance from inner brain structures (e.g. the main blood vessels) and the total path length.

|
The workflow consists in the following steps:
* Definition of a risk-based distance map based on a multimodal brain imaging
* Piecewise-linear path estimation, exploiting the 3D implementation of [1]
* Path interpolation via NURBS curves (a 2D application of the method can be found in [2]) accounting for catheter cinematic and safety constraints
* Uncertainties map computation, to account for path tracking error during the catheter insertion
|
Goals achieved:
* Deformable image registration via Plastimatch
* Blood vessel segmentation through VMTK
* 3D BIT* path planner implementation
* Path interpolation
* Surgeon eye view
Future steps:
# DTI data integration
# Robust path interpolation considering catheter cinematic constraints
# Uncertainties map

The project consists in a reliable and time-efficient pre-operative path planner for steerable catheters, intended to be used in neurosurgical applications. The algorithm estimates a pathway from an entry to a target point within the 3D space defined by the brain volume in accordance to specific optimality parameters and constraints, as the geometric and kynodynamic characteristics of the catheter, the distance from inner brain structures (e.g. the main blood vessels) and the total path length.

|
The workflow consists in the following steps:

* Definition of a risk-based distance map based on a multimodal brain imaging

* Piecewise-linear path estimation, exploiting the 3D implementation of [1]

* Path interpolation via NURBS curves (a 2D application of the method can be found in [2]) accounting for catheter cinematic and safety constraints

* Uncertainties map computation, to account for path tracking error during the catheter insertion

The proposed path planning solution finds a possible direct implementation in the EDEN2020 project (http://www.eden2020.eu), a recently founded EU project which aims to develop an innovative system from treating glioblastoma – a highly malignant tumor involving the central nervous system – through a pioneering steerable catheter (see the figure).

=Welcome to the web page for the 25th Project Week!=
It is a pleasure to announce that the 25th Project week will be held in [https://goo.gl/maps/b9CpkFxNyWN2 Catanzaro Lido] (Calabria, Italy) on June 26-30, 2017. This is the first time in Italy for the Slicer Community, and the event is organized in cooperation with [http://www.imagenglab.com ImagEngLab]. Catanzaro Lido is a city on the Ionian Sea, in the middle of Squillace Gulf where, according to the ancient legend, Odysseus started his journey back to Ithaca. Of course bring your swimsuit...the conference room and the hotel are 20 meters far away from the beach!

This project week is an event [[Post-NCBC-2014|endorsed]] by the MICCAI society.

Please make sure that you are on the NA-MIC Project Week [http://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list].

=Welcome to the web page for the 25th Project Week!=

It is a pleasure to announce that the 25th Project week will be held in [https://goo.gl/maps/b9CpkFxNyWN2 Catanzaro Lido] (Calabria, Italy) on June 26-30, 2017. This is the first time in Italy for the Slicer Community, and the event is organized in cooperation with [http://www.imagenglab.com ImagEngLab]. Catanzaro Lido is a city on the Ionian Sea, in the middle of Squillace Gulf where, according to the ancient legend, Odysseus started his journey back to Ithaca. Of course bring your swimsuit...the conference room and the hotel are 20 meters far away from the beach!

This project week is an event [[Post-NCBC-2014|endorsed]] by the MICCAI society.

Please make sure that you are on the NA-MIC Project Week [http://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/na-mic-project-week mailing list].
