Intraoperative ultrasound is a safe, cost-effective tool that provides useful information about the localization of brain tumors and also targeting residual tumor. 3D reconstruction of intraoperative US can be obtained by recording tracked 2D US data and can be visualized in conjunction with pre-operative MRI scans. Recording appropriate 2D US can have a direct affect on the output of 3D reconstructed volume. The goal of this project is to develop a visual guidance tool to aid neurosurgeons in the process of recording US data.

Project Description

Intraoperative ultrasound is a safe and cost-effective tool that provides useful information about the localization of the brain tumors and also targeting residual tumor. 3D reconstruction of intra-operative US can be obtained by recording tracked 2D US data and can be visualized in conjunction with pre-operative MRI scans. Recording appropriate 2D US slices can have a direct affect on the output of 3D reconstructed volume. The goal of this project is to develop a visual guidance tool to aid neurosurgeons in the process of recording US data.

Objective

  • To develop a visual guidance tool to aid neurosurgeons in the process of recording US data.

Approach, Plan

  • Create scripted module in 3D Slicer for guiding recording process.
