• Abstract: Brain shift makes the pre-operative MRI navigation highly inaccurate hence the intraoperative modalities are adopted in surgical theatre. Due to the excellent economic and portability merits, the Ultrasound imaging is used at our collaborating hospital, Charing Cross Hospital, Imperial College London, UK. However, it is found that intraoperative diagnosis on Ultrasound images is not straightforward and consistent, even for very experienced clinical experts. Hence, there is a demand to design a Computer-aided-diagnosis system to provide a robust second opinion to help the surgeons. The proposed CAD system based on "Mixed-Attention Res-U-net with asymmetric loss function" achieves the state-of-the-art results comparing to the ground truth by classification at pixel-level directly, it also outperforms all the current main stream pixel-level classification methods (e.g. U-net, FCN) in all the evaluation metrices.

We validated our model on a test dataset, consisting of unseen synthetic data and images collected from silicon aorta phantoms.

  Intra-operative tissue deformation (called brain shift) can move the surgical target and render the pre-surgical plan invalid. We propose a novel deep learning technique based on 3D focal modulation in conjunction with uncertainty estimation to accurately assess MRI-iUS registration errors for brain tumor surgery.

  Surgery for gliomas (intrinsic brain tumors) is challenging due to the infiltrative nature of the lesion.

We build a deep-learning-based diagnostic tool for cancer resection with potential for intra-operative guidance.

  A reliable localization and measure of cerebellar damage is fundamental to study the relationship between the damaged cerebellar regions and postoperative neurological outcomes. Existing cerebellum normalization methods are not reliable on postoperative scans, therefore current approaches to measure surgical damage rely on manual labelling. We develop a robust algorithm to automatically detect and measure cerebellum damage due to surgery using postoperative 3D T1 magnetic resonance imaging.
