Abstract
In the context of intraoperative navigation for neurosurgery, brainshift still represents one of the main challenges. After skull and dura mater opening, brain tissue undergoes dynamic spatial modification due to gravity, loss of Cerebrospinal fluid and resection of tissue. The goal of this project is the utilization of intra-cranial 3D freehand ultrasound in order to directly estimate ocurring brain-shift and allow for a subsequent correction for it within available neur-navigation systems used for guidance in the operating room.
