The application discloses an oval foramen automatic detection and fine segmentation method based on an anatomic landmark gravity field and a tubular topology enhancement, and specifically relates to the technical field of medical image processing. Firstly, the head CT or MRI image to be processed is subjected to multi-modal space alignment and adaptive contrast enhancement; subsequently, the image is input into an anatomic landmark gravity field network, macroscopic landmarks of a skull base are extracted, a spatial gravity field matrix is constructed, and the model attention is adaptively focused on a small oval foramen high probability area; then, a multi-view tubular structure enhancement encoder is used to extract features of a three-dimensional hole track of the oval foramen, and the interference of non-penetrating bone depressions is inhibited; finally, a three-dimensional penetrating topology constraint mechanism is introduced in the decoding stage, so that the generated three-dimensional model of the oval foramen has correct anatomic connectivity. The application can effectively solve the detection problem of the oval foramen caused by the large individual variation, the small volume and the easy confusion with surrounding holes and fissures, and significantly improves the preoperative planning accuracy of trigeminal neuralgia puncture and other surgeries.

Examples of implantable medical leads or implantable medical systems with implantable medical leads to be anchored to a sacrum are disclosed. The implantable medical leads include a lead body having a distal portion. A fixation mechanism is coupled to the distal portion. An electrode array is mechanically coupled to the fixation mechanism. In one example, the electrode array is directly coupled to the fixation mechanism. The electrode array is electrically coupled to the lead body and configured to generate a stimulation field. The fixation mechanism is configured to anchor the implantable medical lead to a sacrum and effect the stimulation field in a foramen of the sacrum.

This utility model discloses a dual-disc, one-piece biodegradable foramen ovale occluder for atrial septum. The occluder includes a first disc, a second disc, and an occluding part. The first and second discs are connected to the two ends of the occluding part. The first, second, and occluding parts are one-piece molded and biodegradable. Both the first and second discs are elastic components that can automatically return to their original shape. The plane containing the edge of the first disc is a first plane, and the plane containing the edge of the second disc is a second plane. The angle between the axis of the occluding part and the first plane is an acute angle, and / or the angle between the axis of the occluding part and the second plane is an acute angle. The occluder is a one-piece biodegradable component, which can avoid long-term complications and safety hazards caused by metal remaining in the body. Furthermore, the first and / or second discs are inclined relative to the occluding part, thereby allowing the first and second discs to adapt to different shapes of heart wall structures and improving the occlusion effect.
