ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: Morphological changes to anatomy resulting from invasive surgical procedures or pathology, typically alter the surrounding vasculature. This makes it useful as a descriptor for feature-driven image registration in various clinical applications. However, registration of vasculature remains challenging, as vessels often differ in size and shape, and may even miss branches, due to surgical interventions or pathological changes. Furthermore, existing vessel registration methods are typically designed for a specific application. To address this limitation, we propose a generic vessel registration approach useful for a variety of clinical applications, involving different anatomical regions. METHODS: A probabilistic registration framework based on a hybrid mixture model, with a refinement mechanism to identify missing branches (denoted as HdMM+) during vasculature matching, is introduced. Vascular structures are represented as 6-dimensional hybrid point sets comprising spatial positions and centerline orientations, using Student's t-distributions to model the former and Watson distributions for the latter. RESULTS: The proposed framework is evaluated for intraoperative brain shift compensation, and monitoring changes in pulmonary vasculature resulting from chronic lung disease. Registration accuracy is validated using both synthetic and patient data. Our results demonstrate, HdMM+ is able to reduce more than [Formula: see text] of the initial error for both applications, and outperforms the state-of-the-art point-based registration methods such as coherent point drift and Student's t-distribution mixture model, in terms of mean surface distance, modified Hausdorff distance, Dice and Jaccard scores. CONCLUSION: The proposed registration framework models complex vascular structures using a hybrid representation of vessel centerlines, and accommodates intricate variations in vascular morphology. Furthermore, it is generic and flexible in its design, enabling its use in a variety of clinical applications.

ABSTRACT

Intraoperative brain shift during neurosurgical procedures is a well-known phenomenon caused by gravity, tissue manipulation, tumor size, loss of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), and use of medication. For the use of image-guided systems, this phenomenon greatly affects the accuracy of the guidance. During the last several decades, researchers have investigated how to overcome this problem. The purpose of this paper is to present a review of publications concerning different aspects of intraoperative brain shift especially in a tumor resection surgery such as intraoperative imaging systems, quantification, measurement, modeling, and registration techniques. Clinical experience of using intraoperative imaging modalities, details about registration, and modeling methods in connection with brain shift in tumor resection surgery are the focuses of this review. In total, 126 papers regarding this topic are analyzed in a comprehensive summary and are categorized according to fourteen criteria. The result of the categorization is presented in an interactive web tool. The consequences from the categorization and trends in the future are discussed at the end of this work.
