This study introduces a computational method to improve surgical navigation accuracy for liver tumor removal. By accounting for liver deformation, the new approach significantly reduces registration errors in image-guided surgeries.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Computational Geometry
  • Surgical Navigation

Background:

  • Image guidance in liver tumor surgery relies on rigid registration, which is inaccurate due to liver deformation (up to 2 cm).
  • Non-rigid deformation compromises the precision of current surgical navigation systems.
  • Mathematical models offer a promising solution for compensating intra-operative deformations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate a computational framework to enhance the accuracy of image-guided open abdominal liver tumor removal surgeries.
  • To minimize residual closest point distances between pre-operative and intra-operative liver surfaces.
  • To generate realistic intra-operative liver deformation fields using a surface Laplacian equation.

Main Methods:

  • Implemented a computational approach following initial rigid registration to correct for liver deformation.

  • Utilized a surface Laplacian equation-based filter to create a realistic deformation field.
  • Validated the framework using phantom experiments and clinical trials, comparing pre- and intra-operative surface data.

    • Main Results:

    • The computational framework improved rigid registration errors by 43% (partial surface) and 74% (full surface) in phantom experiments.
    • Clinical data showed a 54% average improvement in closest point residual error compared to rigid registration.
    • The method effectively compensated for intra-operative liver deformations, enhancing navigation accuracy.

    Conclusions:

    • Computational models can significantly increase the accuracy of image-guided open abdominal liver tumor removal surgeries.
    • The proposed framework offers a promising solution for addressing the limitations of rigid registration in liver surgery.
    • Further validation and integration of this computational approach could enhance surgical outcomes.
