Full view vertebral pedicle operation assisting navigation device and method based on bioelectrical impedance

Abstract

The invention discloses a full view vertebral pedicle operation assisting navigation device and method based on bioelectrical impedance. A microelectrode topological structure is adopted, microelectrodes are arranged in multiple positions of a drill head circumferentially, two microelectrodes are arranged as drive electrodes, current is implemented on a detected target, other microelectrodes are combined two by two before being respectively arranged as measuring electrodes, the induction voltage of the detected target is extracted, and impedance of tissue around the drill head and the position of the drill head are monitored in real time during a spinal operation. The device and method has the advantages that the vertebral pedicle screw planting operations are visual, the position of screw channels can be judged more accurately, the screw misplacement rate is decreased to the utmost extent, multiple times of pulling and pushing the drill head in a traditional vertebral pedicle operation are avoided, operation time is saved, and the success rate of operations is increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bio-impedance tomography, and specifically relates to a full-view pedicle auxiliary navigation device and method based on bio-electrical impedance. Background technique [0002] The use of pedicle screw fixation system to treat spinal fractures, tumors, deformities, various degenerative changes and other diseases is one of the important methods in spinal surgery. Establishing pedicle screw in the complex pedicle structure The channel is the prerequisite for pedicle screw implantation surgery, but since the structure of the pedicle cannot be viewed directly, the establishment of a pedicle screw access channel is basically a "blind operation", and the screw must be inserted from the only correct channel in space. Coupled with factors such as individual differences, deformities, and variations in the structure of the pedicle, it is difficult to accurately implant the pedicle screw. [0003] At present, the ...

Problems solved by technology

This current loop method has a large current span, more tissue structures flowing through it, and a lot of interfering signals; coupled with individual differences and age factors, the measured results fluctuate greatly and the accuracy is not high

There are still some limitations to the PediGuard guide technology. The process of operating the PediGuard guide is to judge the type of tissue through the sound of the buzzer. Different doctors have certain differences in the judgment of the sound. In addition, the current loop only passes through a hole at the front end of the drill bit. Due to the extremely small local volume, only local small area tissues can be identified. Only when the drill bit almost touches or has touched the soft tissue in the pedicle, the system can give a more obvious alarm signal, resulting in repeated pushing and pulling of the opener during the operation. To a certain extent, the success rate of the operation is reduced and the operation time is prolonged.
