Title
Resolve Intraoperative Brain Shift as Imitation Game.
Abstract
Soft tissue deformation induced by craniotomy and tissue manipulation (brain shift) limits the use of preoperative image overlay in an image-guided neurosurgery, and therefore reduces the accuracy of the surgery as a consequence. An inexpensive modality to compensate for the brain shift in real-time is Ultrasound (US). The core subject of research in this context is the non-rigid registration of preoperative MR and intraoperative US images. In this work, we propose a learning based approach to address this challenge. Resolving intraoperative brain shift is considered as an imitation game, where the optimal action (displacement) for each landmark on MR is trained with a multi-task network. The result shows a mean target error of 1.21 +/- 0.55 mm.
