Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Medical Imaging
  • Computer-Aided Surgery

Background:

  • Image guidance is crucial for endoscopic sinus and skull base surgery.
  • Current tracking systems are cumbersome and disrupt surgical workflow.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate a novel trackerless surgical navigation system for anterior skull base procedures.
  • The system utilizes 3-dimensional (3D) endoscopy and Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithms.

Main Methods:

  • A study involving deceased donor specimens and a clinical case.
  • Surface models were reconstructed from stereoscopic video and registered to CT/MRI.
  • Key metrics included reconstruction, registration, and localization errors.

Main Results:

  • High-fidelity surface models were reconstructed with low mean errors (e.g., 0.60 mm reconstruction error in donor models).
  • In a clinical case, a tumor resection used a reconstructed model with a 1.38 mm root-mean-square error.

Conclusions:

  • SLAM-based navigation offers an accurate, trackerless alternative to conventional systems.
  • This technology has the potential to improve surgical efficiency, motion economy, and patient safety in skull base surgery.
