This study introduces a frameless image-guided surgery system using computer vision for accurate cranial registration. The novel Fast-MICP algorithm significantly reduces registration time by 90% while maintaining sub-3mm accuracy.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Computer Vision
  • Surgical Navigation

Background:

  • Image-guided surgery (IGS) relies on accurate image-to-physical registration.
  • Traditional methods using stereotactic frames or fiducials are invasive and not patient-friendly.
  • Frameless approaches offer a more patient-friendly alternative for IGS.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and evaluate a frameless cranial image-guided surgery (IGS) system.
  • To utilize computer vision techniques for patient-specific feature registration.
  • To replace invasive frames or fiducials with natural anatomical features.

Main Methods:

  • Facial surface reconstruction using stereo vision and projected parallel-line patterns.
  • Reconstruction of patient facial surface from preoperative CT images.

  • Registration of stereo vision and CT data using a fast marker-added ICP (Fast-MICP) algorithm.

    • Main Results:

    • The Fast-MICP algorithm achieved a 90% reduction in computational cost compared to marker-added ICP.
    • Registration accuracy was demonstrated with a target registration error (TRE) under 3 mm.
    • Integration with optical spatial digitizing devices enables enhanced surgical navigation and augmented reality.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed frameless IGS system achieves sub-3 mm TRE using stereo vision.
    • The Fast-MICP algorithm significantly improves registration efficiency without sacrificing accuracy.
    • This approach offers a more patient-friendly and efficient solution for cranial image-guided surgery.
