Embodiment 3

[0043] In order to verify the feasibility of the above method and system, CT and free-style ultrasound scanning with optical positioning were performed on patients with facial foreign bodies and parotid gland tumors. The connected and integrated system was running normally under the joint on-site monitoring of oral and maxillofacial surgeons, sonographers, and engineers, and successfully obtained ultrasound images of the lesion area according to the image acquisition standards of the engineers.

[0044] Fusion image analysis:

[0045] In order to test the effect of image fusion, we imported the fused ultrasound and CT data into the image processing software MIPAV again, and superimposed the ultrasound and CT data. Then the effect of image fusion is analyzed through subjective and objective evaluation methods.

[0046] The subjective evaluation method is that two experienced sonographers and radiologists jointly review the original image and the fused image, and evaluate the f...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of ultrasound imaging, and in particular relates to an operation navigation system and a method thereof for fusion of ultrasound and CT / MR images based on optical positioning and registration. Background technique [0002] In the computer-aided surgical navigation system, including path planning, physical coordinate system registration, intraoperative navigation, etc., are all based on the reconstruction of preoperative image data. During the operation, the deformation of viscera and soft tissue may be caused by breathing, contact with surgical instruments, etc., so that the observed image data cannot reflect the real position of the patient's internal anatomical structure, resulting in a decrease in the positioning accuracy of soft tissue navigation surgery. However, ultrasound has been introduced as a real-time intraoperative visualization technique due to its advantages of cheapness, real-time, non-invasi...
