METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR SIMULTANEOUS SCENE PARSING AND MODEL FUSION FOR ENDOSCOPIC AND LAPAROSCOPIC NAVIGATION

摘要

A method and system for scene parsing and model fusion in laparoscopic and endoscopic 2D/2.5D image data is disclosed. A current frame of an intra-operative image stream including a 2D image channel and a 2.5D depth channel is received. A 3D pre-operative model of a target organ segmented in pre-operative 3D medical image data is fused to the current frame of the intra-operative image stream. Semantic label information is propagated from the pre-operative 3D medical image data to each of a plurality of pixels in the current frame of the intra-operative image stream based on the fused pre-operative 3D model of the target organ, resulting in a rendered label map for the current frame of the intra-operative image stream. A semantic classifier is trained based on the rendered label map for the current frame of the intra-operative image stream.
