Motion compensation for overlays in interventional fluoroscopyX-ray fluoroscopy guidance using a C-arm CT is widely used
for minimally invasive interventions on the heart or the
liver. However, soft tissue contrast in fluoroscopic images
is low. Consequently, preoperatively acquired roadmap
information, e.g. from MR or CT, is overlaid onto the
fluoroscopic images during the intervention. In the thorax
or abdomen, the respiratory motion of the patient causes
inconsistencies between the live fluoroscopic images and a
static roadmap overlay. This project researches respiratory motion compensation.
This has the potential to drastically increase the
reliability and accuracy of overlays. A model-based approach
is investigated, which uses an externally measured or image-
based respiratory signal to control a respiratory model. A
challenge is the reliable estimation of respiratory
information from the fluoroscopic images. Algorithms for the
extraction of a respiratory signal from the images are
developed and analyzed. Several methods for measuring the
respiratory signal externally are investigated and compared.
Another key aspect is the analysis and development of
respiratory models. Preoperative measurements can be used to
create the respiratory model. | Project manager: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Joachim Hornegger, Dr.-Ing. Thomas Pohl
