Abstract: In many medical applications, it is crucial to match or register two different image data with each other, for example live image data with previously obtained 3D image data. The present disclosure relates to registration of a 3D image dataset with (live) ultrasound data. Rather than reconstructing an image from the ultrasound data and registering the reconstructed image with the 3D image dataset, the approach of the present disclosure matches the ultrasound A mode signals output by an ultrasound transducer with simulated ultrasound A mode signals generated from the 3D image dataset.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method determines the position of a stimulation electrode. The method encompasses determination of the orientation of a medical stimulation electrode from medical image data showing an image of the electrode. A first scan is generated from which the position of the electrode is determined, and a second scan with optimized imaging parameters is generated using the same or a different imaging modality. The second scan shows a more precise image of the electrode and is used to determine the rotational orientation of the electrode along its longitudinal axis.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of determining a consensus plane usable for imaging an anatomical body part with a medical imaging device. The method involves acquiring patient image data that describes an anatomical body part; acquiring planned trajectory data; determining initial imaging plane data of the medical imaging device based on the planned trajectory data; acquiring imaging device constraint data; and acquiring orientation condition data that describes a predetermined condition to be met. The method further includes determining consensus plane data based on the imaging device constraint data and the initial imaging plane data and the orientation condition data; and acquiring avoidance region position data that describes a position of an avoidance region which shall at least substantially not be intersected by imaging radiation during the imaging. The determining consensus plane data is further based on the avoidance region position data.

Abstract: Provided is a computer-implemented medical method of irradiation treatment planning that includes an algorithm, which calculates irradiation treatment plans and at the same time considers the combination of the deliverability of the calculated RT plans, the relevancy of the calculated RT plans, and a reasonably distinctiveness between said calculated plans regarding their respective 3D dose distribution. The method automatically calculates and automatically pre-selects some of the calculated plans in steps S1 to S4, which can then be provided to the user. Moreover, in step S5 the method provides a beneficial way of automatically grouping together plans, such as by sorting the calculated and pre-selected plans. By visualizing these automatically calculated, pre-selected and grouped plans in a particular way to the user, the final plan selection by the user is facilitated in a fast, reliable and medically safe manner.

Abstract: Disclosed is a computer-implemented method of planning a straight trajectory in a medical image of an anatomical structure. A template of the straight trajectory is given in an atlas and the atlas is registered with the medical image. The atlas is divided into a first area and one or more second areas, wherein the first area comprises the straight trajectory and the one or more second areas do not comprise any part of the straight trajectory. When the transformation of the atlas onto the medical image is calculated, the first and second areas are treated differently. The transformation of the first area maintains the straight shape of the trajectory and is thus restricted. The transformation of the one or more second areas is unrestricted and thus allows any kind of image registration. The template of the transformed atlas is the applied to the medical image.

Abstract: Disclosed is a computer-implemented method of training a likelihood-based computational model for determining the position of an image representation of an annotated anatomical structure in a two-dimensional x-ray image, wherein the method encompasses inputting medical DRRs together with annotation to a machine learning algorithm to train the algorithm, i.e. to generate adapted learnable parameters of the machine learning model. The annotations may be derived from metadata associated with the DRRs or may be included in atlas data which is matched with the DRRs to establish a relation between the annotations included in the atlas data and the DRRs. The thus generated machine learning algorithm may then be used to analyse clinical or synthesized DRRs so as to appropriately add annotations to those DRRs and/or identify the position of an anatomical structure in those DRRs.

Abstract: Disclosed is an incision foil made of a sterile, thin adhesive plastic film with a defined pattern printed on it (e.g. a fine grid pattern) which can be stuck e.g. on a patient's skin surface and which marks the anatomical region of interest. Using a camera, images are acquired of the attached film and the deformation of the pattern is digitized. With a computer vision algorithm the surface of the patient, which corresponds to the surface of the film, is reconstructed from the detected pattern features in the images in comparison to the known original undeformed pattern. Disclosed is also a method for determining a geometry of the surface of the patient using the incision foil.
