Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Anatomy

Context:

  • Stereotactic neurosurgery planning relies on accurate anatomical localization.
  • Existing methods for brain atlas integration can be labor-intensive and prone to error.
  • The Schaltenbrand and Wahren (SW) atlas is a foundational resource in stereotactic neurosurgery.

Purpose:

  • To develop and integrate a computerized version of the Schaltenbrand and Wahren stereotactic brain atlas into a PC-based planning system.
  • To enable interactive registration of the digital SW atlas with patient neuroimaging data.
  • To present the computational tools and applications for enhanced neurosurgical planning.

Summary:

  • Digitized and labeled SW atlas plates allow for interactive registration with patient data using linear and non-linear transformations.
  • The system facilitates navigation through brain slices, synchronized multi-view displays, and zoom functionality for precise localization of surgical targets.
  • Users can interactively update atlas position, simulate lesion location and volume, and optimize surgical path selection.

Impact:

  • Increased accuracy in defining surgical targets.
  • Reduced number of electrode tracts and overall surgery duration.
  • Decreased incidence of surgical complications through enhanced planning and navigation.
