Intraoperative Live Imaging

Neurosurgery is fluctuating by nature. A preoperatively acquired data set may be outdated only minutes after surgery begins due to various associated factors. Intraoperative updates of data are essential in neurosurgery. While most preoperative images are either CT or MR, data sets may also be updated using intraoperative ultrasound. Brainlab ultrasound integration features live anatomical images that are overlaid directly onto preoperative data.

  • More confidence through live advanced resection control and brain shift compensation
  • Brainlab Ultrasound Integration utilizes existing ultrasound systems
  • Neuronavigation provides probe orientation for easy image interpretation
  • Composite views of intraoperative ultrasound images and reformatted CT or MR images
