Two-dimensional (2D)-3D registration is challenging in the presence of implant projections on intraoperative images, which can limit the registration capture range. Here, we investigate the use of deep-learning-based inpainting for removing implant projections from the X-rays to improve the registration performance.
We trained deep-learning-based inpainting models that can fill in the implant projections on X-rays. Clinical datasets were collected to evaluate the inpainting based on six image similarity measures. The effect of X-ray inpainting on capture range of 2D-3D registration was also evaluated.
The X-ray inpainting significantly improved the similarity between the inpainted images and the ground truth. When applying inpainting before the 2D-3D registration process, we demonstrated significant recovery of the capture range by up to 85%.
Applying deep-learning-based inpainting on X-ray images masked by implants can markedly improve the capture range of the associated 2D-3D registration task.
在术中图像存在植入物投影的情况下,二维(2D)-三维(3D)配准具有挑战性,这可能会限制配准的捕获范围。在这里,我们研究了基于深度学习的图像修复技术在去除 X 光片中的植入物投影以提高配准性能的应用。
我们训练了基于深度学习的图像修复模型,可以在 X 光片中填充植入物投影。收集了临床数据集,以基于六种图像相似性度量来评估图像修复。还评估了 X 射线修复对 2D-3D 配准捕获范围的影响。
X 射线修复显著提高了修复图像与真实图像之间的相似性。在将修复应用于 2D-3D 配准过程之前,我们证明了捕获范围的显著恢复,最高可达 85%。
在被植入物遮挡的 X 光片上应用基于深度学习的图像修复技术可以显著提高相关 2D-3D 配准任务的捕获范围。
