Automatic biomechanical graph matching CT-CBCT fusion
Abstract
Image-guided hepatic surgery is progressively becoming a standard for certain interventions. However, limited dose radiation requirements result in lower quality images, making it difficult to localize tumors and other structures of interest. In this paper we propose an automatic registration method exploiting the matching of the vascular trees, visible in both pre and intra-operative images. The graphs are automatically matched using an algorithm combining a Gaussian Process Regression and biomechanical model. This process is automatic, does not require any initialization and handles large intra-operative deformations.
