A110 ADVANCES IN THORACIC ONCOLOGIC DIAGNOSTICS: Optimal Biopsy-Site Localization For Image-Guided Endobronchial Ultrasound

Methods - Given a patient's chest CT scan, computer-based image processing extracts the 3D airway tree, major vasculature, and lymph nodes of interest (CT = X-ray computed tomography). During later bronchoscopy, these data drive a custom image-guided navigation system (Higgins et al, ATS2016) t...

Zusammenfassung:Methods - Given a patient's chest CT scan, computer-based image processing extracts the 3D airway tree, major vasculature, and lymph nodes of interest (CT = X-ray computed tomography). During later bronchoscopy, these data drive a custom image-guided navigation system (Higgins et al, ATS2016) that displays dynamic visual cues indicating optimal biopsy-site locations.
