OBJECTIVE: The authors aimed to evaluate the technical feasibility of a mixed-reality neuronavigation (MRN) system with a wearable head-mounted device (HMD) and to determine its clinical application and accuracy. METHODS: A semiautomatic registration MRN system on HoloLens smart glasses was developed and tested for accuracy and feasibility. Thirty-seven patients with intracranial lesions were prospectively identified. For each patient, multimodal imaging-based holograms of lesions, markers, and surrounding eloquent structures were created and then imported to the MRN HMD. After a point-based registration, the holograms were projected onto the patient's head and observed through the HMD. The contour of the holograms was compared with standard neuronavigation (SN). The projection of the lesion boundaries perceived by the neurosurgeon on the patient's scalp was then marked with MRN and SN. The distance between the two contours generated by MRN and SN was measured so that the accuracy of MRN could be assessed. RESULTS: MRN localization was achieved in all patients. The mean additional time required for MRN was 36.3 ± 6.3 minutes, in which the mean registration time was 2.6 ± 0.9 minutes. A trend toward a shorter time required for preparation was observed with the increase of neurosurgeon experience with the MRN system. The overall median deviation was 4.1 mm (IQR 3.0 mm-4.7 mm), and 81.1% of the lesions localized by MRN were found to be highly consistent with SN (deviation < 5.0 mm). There was a significant difference between the supine position and the prone position (3.7 ± 1.1 mm vs 5.4 ± 0.9 mm, p = 0.001). The magnitudes of deviation vectors did not correlate with lesion volume (p = 0.126) or depth (p = 0.128). There was no significant difference in additional operating time between different operators (37.4 ± 4.8 minutes vs 34.6 ± 4.8 minutes, p = 0.237) or in localization deviation (3.7 ± 1.0 mm vs 4.6 ± 1.5 mm, p = 0.070). CONCLUSIONS: This study provided a complete set of a clinically applicable workflow on an easy-to-use MRN system using a wearable HMD, and has shown its technical feasibility and accuracy. Further development is required to improve the accuracy and clinical efficacy of this system.
目的:本研究旨在评估一种具有可穿戴式头戴设备(HMD)的混合现实神经导航(MRN)系统的技术可行性,并确定其临床应用和准确性。
方法:开发并测试了一种基于 HoloLens 智能眼镜的半自动配准 MRN 系统,以评估其准确性和可行性。前瞻性纳入 37 例颅内病变患者。为每位患者创建基于多模态成像的病变、标记物和周围功能区的全息图,并将其导入到 MRN HMD。完成基于点的配准后,将全息图投射到患者头部并通过 HMD 进行观察。比较全息图的轮廓与标准神经导航(SN)。神经外科医生在患者头皮上标记病变边界的感知投影,然后使用 MRN 和 SN 进行标记。测量由 MRN 和 SN 生成的两个轮廓之间的距离,以评估 MRN 的准确性。
结果:所有患者均实现了 MRN 定位。MRN 的平均附加时间为 36.3±6.3 分钟,其中平均注册时间为 2.6±0.9 分钟。随着神经外科医生对 MRN 系统经验的增加,准备时间呈缩短趋势。整体中位数偏差为 4.1mm(IQR 3.0mm-4.7mm),81.1%的病变通过 MRN 定位与 SN 高度一致(偏差<5.0mm)。仰卧位与俯卧位之间存在显著差异(3.7±1.1mm 比 5.4±0.9mm,p=0.001)。偏差向量的大小与病变体积(p=0.126)或深度(p=0.128)无关。不同操作者之间的附加手术时间(37.4±4.8 分钟比 34.6±4.8 分钟,p=0.237)或定位偏差(3.7±1.0mm 比 4.6±1.5mm,p=0.070)无显著差异。
结论:本研究提供了一种基于易于使用的头戴式 HMD 的具有临床应用价值的 MRN 系统的完整工作流程,并展示了其技术可行性和准确性。需要进一步开发以提高该系统的准确性和临床疗效。
