  • Method and system for interactive 3D scope placement and measurements for kidney stone removal procedure
    Patent number: 10716626
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to interactive medical image processing for surgical procedure planning. In one example, a three dimensional (3D) image of a kidney is obtained. The three dimensional image is rendered on a display screen. An input is received from a user specifying a location with respect to a representation of the kidney in the rendered three dimensional image. A representation of an instrument is rendered on the display screen based on the location. The instrument is automatically aligned with an infundibulum pathway of calyx at the location with respect to the kidney. A graphical line extension is rendered on the display screen to visualize the alignment of the instrument. One or more measurements related to the kidney are determined based on the location and an anatomical structure of the kidney.

  • Method and system for surgical planning in a mixed reality environment
    Patent number: 10679417
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to method and system for aligning a virtual anatomic model. The method generates a virtual model of an organ of a patient, wherein the virtual model includes at least three virtual markers. A number of virtual spheres equal to a the number of virtual markers are generated, wherein the virtual spheres are disposed on the virtual model of the organ of the patient and associated with the virtual markers. A first position of the virtual spheres and the virtual markers is recorded. The virtual spheres are placed to coincide with physical markers disposed on the patient and a second position of the virtual spheres is recorded. A transformation of the virtual spheres and the virtual markers based on the first and second positions is computed and the virtual model of the organ is aligned with the patient based on the computed transformation.
