Abstract
Examples of the presently disclosed technology provide systems and methods for automatically identifying candidate target locations and candidate surgical trajectories using a functional brain activity scan mapped to patient-specific 3D brain structure representations generated from a structural scan of a patient's brain. In an illustrative example, the methods and systems adapt a shape-constrained deformable brain model to a structural scan of a patient's brain to generate a patient-specific 3D brain representation of the patient's brain and extract a patient-specific 3D brain structure representation from the patient-specific 3D brain representation. The functional brain activity of the patient's brain is registered to the structural scan and mapped to the extracted patient-specific 3D brain structure representation from the structural scan. One or more target locations are identified on the patient-specific 3D brain structure representation based on the mapped functional brain activity.
