Proposal for the Fusion of Ultrasound and Computed Tomography Images for Image Shift Correction in Craniomaxillofacial Soft Tissue Surgery

Surgical navigation has greatly improved the accuracy of craniomaxillofacial bone surgery and is widely used in the clinic. However, during surgery, craniomaxillofacial soft tissue is always deformed due to traction and compression, which leads to intraoperative image drift. This, in turn, impacts n...

Sumario:Surgical navigation has greatly improved the accuracy of craniomaxillofacial bone surgery and is widely used in the clinic. However, during surgery, craniomaxillofacial soft tissue is always deformed due to traction and compression, which leads to intraoperative image drift. This, in turn, impacts navigation accuracy. In order to improve navigation accuracy, this technical note presents a preliminary proposal for fusion imaging technology, which combines ultrasound and computed tomography to address navigational image drift in craniomaxillofacial soft tissue surgery.
