Transcranial ultrasound stimulation array automatic positioning and deployment method based on brain target point constraint

By using a brain target constraint-based method, the array deployment location and orientation are automatically determined, solving the problem that array deployment in existing technologies relies on human experience. This achieves individualized fit and automated positioning of the array to the scalp, improving the rationality and repeatability of array deployment.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for deploying transcranial ultrasound stimulation arrays rely on human experience, making it difficult to balance target orientation with scalp adhesion, resulting in insufficient individual adaptability, poor repeatability, and a lack of automated processes.

Method used

The automatic positioning and deployment method of transcranial ultrasound stimulation array based on brain target constraints automatically determines the array deployment position, orientation, and fit amount through individual head medical image segmentation results. This includes acquiring scalp segmentation results, establishing surface mesh, calculating normal vector consistency, rotation registration, and array fit correction, and generating array deployment results.

Benefits of technology

It enables automated and individualized adaptation of array deployment, improves the fit between the array and the scalp and the consistency of the focusing path, and enhances the repeatability of clinical applications and the feasibility of simulation.

Abstract

本申请属于医学影像处理技术领域,公开了一种基于脑靶点约束的经颅超声刺激阵列自动定位部署方法,本申请以个体头部医学影像分割结果和脑靶点为输入,首先构建头部外表面;然后依据脑靶点与候选点之间的空间关系,自动筛选满足方向约束的局部候选点,并求取其法向量;再将预定义的经颅超声刺激阵列几何模型按照该法向量进行旋转配准,并映射到个体头部核磁影像坐标系中;最后根据阵元相对于头皮表面的有符号距离,进行整体平移修正,使阵列实现自动贴合部署,并输出部署结果。
