Image Overlay The Surgical Navigational Systems of Tomorrow Presenter: Jeff Hsin
In what types of surgery are they used for? • Neurosurgery • Orthopedics • Microsurgery • Obstetrics • Plastic Surgery • Numerous others…
Guidance with 3D images • A great deal of research has been invested in the possibility of using 3-D images of a particular surgical area in hopes to provide the surgeon with more surgical guidance.
Format of 3-D image: • View pre-operational 3-D images in the form of two-dimensional sectional images displayed away from the surgical area
Present Day Techniques • View the computer display showing the image
Present Day Techniques • View the computer display showing the image • reconstruct and formulate the 3-D image in his head
Present Day Techniques • View the computer display showing the image • reconstruct and formulate the 3-D image in his head • relate the 3-D image, now stored in his head, with the actual patient’s body when conducting the operation
Why this needs to change. • The quality of reconstruction of the image in the surgeon’s mind is dependent upon his surgical experience as well as his anatomical knowledge.
Why Else Does This Need to Change? • Disruptive in the flow of surgery • Leaves room for considerable margins of error
What Is It? • A display technique that will superimpose computer-generated images over the surgeon’s direct view of the patient’s surgical area

Present Focus of Image Overlay • Intra-operative guidance • Surgical education
Intra-operative guidance • placement of the acetabular and femoral prosthetic implant components during total hip replacement surgery
Intra-operative guidance • placement of the acetabular and femoral prosthetic implant components during total hip replacement surgery • proper placement of screws or intramedullary rods in bone fragments
Intra-operative guidance • Neurosurgical procedures.
Obstacles to Overcome • Accuracy –detrimental without it.
Obstacles to Overcome • Accuracy –detrimental without it. • Spontaneous changes that occur in biological system. E.g. deformation of skin
