Ultrasound aided vertebral level localization for lumbar surgery.
IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging(2017)
摘要
Localization of the correct vertebral level for surgical entry during lumbar hernia surgery is not straightforward. In this paper, we develop and evaluate a solution using free-hand 2-D ultrasound (US) imaging in the operation room (OR). Our system exploits the difference in spinous process shapes of the vertebrae. The spinous processes are pre-operatively outlined and labeled in a lateral lumbar ...
