Computer-aided medical interventions and medical robotics for prostate cancer have known an increasing interest and research activity. However before the routine deployment of these procedures in clinical practice becomes a reality, in vivo and in silico validations must be undertaken. In this study, we developed a digital morphologic atlas of the prostate. We were interested by the gland, the peripheral zone and the central gland. Starting from an image base collected from 30 selected patients, a mean shape and most important deformations for each structure were deduced using principal component analysis. The usefulness of this atlas was highlighted in two applications: image simulation and physical phantom design.
计算机辅助医疗介入和医疗机器人在前列腺癌领域的应用受到了越来越多的关注和研究。然而，在这些程序常规应用于临床实践之前，必须进行体内和计算机模拟验证。在这项研究中，我们开发了一个前列腺的数字形态图谱。我们对前列腺、外周区和中央腺体感兴趣。从从 30 名精选患者的图像库中，我们使用主成分分析推导出每个结构的平均形状和最重要的变形。该图谱在两个应用中得到了很好的验证：图像模拟和物理模型设计。
