Resection-induced brain shift estimation: biomechanics-based approach [ 2018 - 2020 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Prof Karol Miller (Principal investigator) ,  Prof Adam Wittek ,  Prof Neville Knuckey

Brief description Our overall objective is to significantly improve the efficacy and efficiency of image-guided neurosurgery for brain tumours by including realistic computation of brain deformations, based on a biomechanical model, in a system to improve intra-operative visualisation, navigation and monitoring. The system will create an augmented reality visualisation of the intra-operative configuration of the patient’s brain merged with high resolution pre-operative imaging data.
