Embodiment Construction

[0045] like figure 1 As shown, the positioning device of the present invention includes: PC, binocular analog camera and image acquisition card or binocular digital camera and supporting equipment (network cable, fire wire and 1394 card, etc.), bracket, marker (electrode patch). The combination of the above hardware is as follows figure 1 Shown: the markers are attached to the patient's head (four in total); the binocular camera is used to collect digital images of the patient's head; the bracket is used to support and fix the binocular cameras; the PC is used to process the digital images collected by the binocular cameras , to realize the real-time registration algorithm of the patient's head. The following are introduced separately.

[0046] (1) The PC can choose a personal computer. Personal computer is more and more higher as known pervasive computer performance, has fully satisfied the requirement of this invention and medical operation. The operating system of the...

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic visual location device and an automatic visual location method for head marks of a patient in stereotactic neurosurgery. The method comprises the following steps of: designing a mark template; pasting marks on the head of the patient by using a specific method; acquiring pixel coordinates of mark centers of single-frame left and right eye images in video by using an image processing and pattern recognition method, and reconstructing the pixel coordinates into spatial coordinates by using a computer vision method; and tracking to acquire pixel coordinates of a mark center of a video sequence by using the image processing and pattern recognition method, and reconstructing the pixel coordinates into spatial coordinates by using the computer vision method. In the invention, the traditional method of manually selecting mark centers in the neurosurgery is changed, the automation of the location of the mark centers is realized, operation steps are simplified, and operation time is shortened; location results are more accurate; and the reliability of the operation is improved. The automatic visual location device and the automatic visual location method can be promoted and applied, and solve the problem of the location and tracking of the mark centers in surgeries such as bone surgeries and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the problem of registration of a patient's head in neurosurgery, in particular to an automatic visual positioning device and a positioning method for marking a patient's head in stereotactic neurosurgery, belonging to the field of image processing. Background technique [0002] A key technology in stereotaxic neurosurgery is the registration of the patient's head, that is, to obtain the corresponding relationship between the medical image space and the surgical equipment space. The medical image space refers to the patient's brain space reconstructed with CT or MRI tomographic images, which contains important information inside the patient's brain; the surgical equipment space refers to the space where medical robots or other medical equipment are located. Only by realizing the registration of the patient's head can the surgical equipment accurately locate the position of the patient's brain and successfully complete the operat...
