Surgical navigation has greatly improved the accuracy of craniomaxillofacial bone surgery and is widely used in the clinic. However, during surgery, craniomaxillofacial soft tissue is always deformed due to traction and compression, which leads to intraoperative image drift. This, in turn, impacts navigation accuracy. In order to improve navigation accuracy, this technical note presents a preliminary proposal for fusion imaging technology, which combines ultrasound and computed tomography to address navigational image drift in craniomaxillofacial soft tissue surgery.
手术导航极大地提高了颅颌面骨手术的准确性，广泛应用于临床。然而，在手术过程中，由于牵引和压迫，颅颌面软组织始终会发生变形，导致术中图像漂移。这反过来又会影响导航精度。为了提高导航精度，本技术说明提出了一种融合成像技术的初步建议，该技术将超声和计算机断层扫描相结合，解决颅颌面软组织手术中的导航图像漂移问题。
