Abstract:Purpose
Surface‐based image‐to‐patient registration in current surgical navigation is mainly achieved by a 3D scanner, which has several limitations in clinical practice such as uncontrollable scanning range, complicated operation, and even high failure rate. An accurate, robust, and easy‐to‐perform image‐to‐patient registration method is urgently required.
Methods
An incremental point cloud registration method was proposed for surface‐based image‐to‐patient registration. The point cloud in image space was ext… Show more
