Maxillofacial Cone Beam Computed Tomography

Abstract

Registration is the transfer of geometrical knowledge from the outside, be it a general anatomical atlas, or individual image data, and the patient’s anatomy into a common coordinate system. First attempts to register atlas-based knowledge into intraoperative physical space were performed 100 years ago (Al-Rodhan and Kelly 1992). With the availability of medical image data, patient individual information was registered to the patient (Spiegel and Wycis 1962). With the possibility of registering patient individual anatomical information into the operative environment, methods were developed to transfer also a preoperative surgical planning that was performed based on the image data. From this point on we can call the whole process “image-guided surgery.” The tasks of a system for image-guided surgery based on patient individual image data are:

  • To give a coordinate system to the physical body, hence creating a patient space.

  • To give a coordinate system to the image data, hence creating an image space.

  • To create a transform, that accurately assigns a point in image space to the corresponding anatomical point in patient space. This process is called registration.
