A hybrid deep registration of MR scans to interventional ultrasound for neurosurgical guidance

  • Despite the recent advances in image-guided neurosurgery, reliable and accurate estimation of the brain shift still remains one of the key challenges. In this paper, we propose an automated multimodal deformable registration method using hybrid learning-based and classical approaches to improve neurosurgical procedures. Initially, the moving and fixed images are aligned using classical affine transformation (MINC toolkit), and then the result is provided to the convolutional neural network, which predicts the deformation field using backpropagation. Subsequently, the moving image is transformed using the resultant deformation into a moved image. Our model was evaluated on two publicly available datasets: the retrospective evaluation of cerebral tumors (RESECT) and brain images of tumors for evaluation (BITE). The mean target registration errors have been reduced from 5.35 ± 4.29 to 0.99 ± 0.22 mm in the RESECT and from 4.18 ± 1.91 to 1.68 ± 0.65 mm in the BITE. Experimental results showed that our method improved the state-of-the-art in terms of both accuracy and runtime speed (170 ms on average). Hence, the proposed method provides a fast runtime for 3D MRI to intra-operative US pair in a GPU-based implementation, which shows a promise for its applicability in assisting the neurosurgical procedures compensating for brain shift.
