Abstract
A method for generating an intraoperative 3D brain model while a patient is operated. Before an opening in a patient's skull is made, the method includes: providing a preoperative 3D brain model of a patient's brain and converting it to a preoperative 3D brain point cloud; providing a preoperative 3D face model of a patient's face and converting it to a preoperative 3D face point cloud. After the opening in the patient's skull is made, the method includes: matching the intraoperative 3D face point cloud with the preoperative 3D face point cloud to find a face point transformation; transforming the intraoperative 3D brain point cloud based on said face point cloud transformation; comparing the intraoperative 3D brain point cloud with the preoperative 3D brain point cloud to determine a brain shift; and converting the preoperative 3D brain model to generate an intraoperative 3D brain model based on said brain shift.
