Background Image-guided surgery has become standard practice during surgical resection,
using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. Intraoperative ultrasound (IoUS) has …

Introduction: Fluorescence-guided resection (FGR) of brain tumors is an intuitive, practical
and emerging technology for visually delineating neoplastic tissue exposed intraoperatively …

Background A number of tools, including intraoperative ultrasound, are reported to facilitate
surgical resection of high-grade gliomas. However, results from selected surgical series do …

Intraoperative tissue deformation, known as brain shift, decreases the benefit of using
preoperative images to guide neurosurgery. Non-rigid registration of preoperative magnetic …

Purpose We present a new technique for registering magnetic resonance (MR) and
ultrasound images in the context of neurosurgery. It involves generating a pseudo …

Purpose Sites that use ultrasound (US) in image-guided neurosurgery (IGNS) of brain
tumors generally have three sets of imaging data: preoperative magnetic resonance (MR) …

An image‐based re‐registration scheme has been developed and evaluated that uses
fiducial registration as a starting point to maximize the normalized mutual information (nMI) …

Background Intraoperative ultrasound (iUS) and intraoperative MRI (iMRI) are effective ways
to perform resection control during glioma surgery. However, most published studies …

Purpose Several medical imaging modalities exhibit inherent scaling among the acquired
data: The scale in an ultrasound image varies with the speed of sound and the scale of the …

Biomechanical models simulating brain motion under loading and boundary conditions in
the operating room (OR) are gaining attention as alternatives for brain shift compensation …
