Embodiment Construction

[0026] Broadly speaking, specifically referring to figure 1 , in a basic embodiment, the present invention involves obtaining real-time optical views of the brain 12 during surgery, typically using a microscope 14. Figure 10 . The present invention also relates to the use of real-time visual Figure 10 Aligned, the functional map 16 includes an anatomical model 20 of the brain 12 and Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) functional data for the patient 18 . This alignment step is schematically indicated by dashed line 22 . Patient NBS functional data are usually obtained and compiled prior to surgery, but this aspect is further described in more detail in the instructions.

[0027] Specifically, these two Figure 10 , 16 is achieved by overlaying anatomical landmarks such as veins 24, sulci and gyri (indicated by one reference numeral 26) in the functional map 16 onto the corresponding anatomical landmarks 24 from the live microscopic image 10 . Once the function maps 16 wi...

Abstract

The present invention discloses a method of overlaying Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) functional data on a live image of a brain. The method comprises the steps of obtaining a live image of a brain,obtaining a functional map of the brain comprising an anatomical model of the brain and NBS functional data associated with the brain, identifying at least one anatomical landmark of the brain from the live image of the brain, identifying at least one of said identified anatomical landmarks on the anatomical model of the brain,modifying the functional map so that the identified at least one anatomical landmark of the model corresponds in size and orientation to the corresponding at least one anatomical landmark in the live image of the brain, anddigitally overlaying at least said NBS functional data on said live image of the brain according to the corresponding, aligned anatomical landmarks.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for overlaying Navigated Brain Stimulation (NBS) functional data on real-time images of the brain. In particular, a functional map including NBS functional data of the brain and an anatomical model of the brain are constructed before surgery so that anatomical landmarks on the anatomical model can be aligned with corresponding anatomical landmarks on real-time images of the brain during surgery. Background technique [0002] In modern brain surgery, surgeons typically use light microscopes and / or specialized imaging devices to view the brain. However, there has been a long-felt need to display regional brain function to surgeons with high precision and in a timely manner. Currently, precise methods require a significant amount of time at the start of the procedure, which poses increased risks to the patient. In turn, methods that require less time to set up during operation are less accurate and ca...
