Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of computer simulated radioscopy and aid to surgery, in particular to microsurgery.
- microscope vision In general, in endocavitary microsurgery, a microscope is used as the operative visualization means for the areas to be operated that are substantially superficial, and an endoscope for areas inaccessible to direct vision.
- microscope vision has its limits since it is a direct vision which sometimes requires the collapse of the surface structures before accessing the deeper structures.
- Endoscope vision then has the advantage of respecting the anatomical structures explored.
- it can be hindered by bleeding or anatomical changes.
- the neighboring organs remain invisible to the surgeon, who then risks damaging a noble organ without being able to discern it. It is thus obvious that the reliability of the operation depends on the only experience of the surgeon, since there exists in each operation a certain degree of uncontrollable uncertainty.
- Radioscopy gives, on the other hand, images in real time, but it has many disadvantages linked in particular to its cost, to its gravity which slows the operation and especially the irradiation of the patient and the practitioner.
- the intraoperative scanner has been considered in exceptional situations, but cannot reasonably become routine.
- the object of the invention is to overcome these drawbacks and to allow the surgeon to easily locate in real time any micro-instrument which he uses on a previously recorded digital image and this, without intraoperative irradiation.
- document EP-A-0 326 768 describes the use of an electro-goniometer, one end of which is fixed to the surgical instrument and the other to a reference block in the form of an arm. Speak clearly. The latter is maintained in a constant position relative to the patient by means of a screw introduced into the patient's tibia.
- This document essentially describes how to help the surgeon to position an instrument, essentially a saw blade or a drill, by identifying the precise position of this instrument.
- Document WO-A-90/09 141 describes a system using a surgical video microscope making it possible to obtain surgical imaging on a monitor.
- This imagery consists of a set of views in cross section and in plane obtained by moiré interferometry, and more generally intended for microsurgery of the eye.
- the invention therefore relates to a new concept of computer simulated radioscopy ("RSO") which is entirely desirable to suppress all irradiation during the operation, while retaining the same possibilities of visualization in real time.
- RSO computer simulated radioscopy
- the present invention therefore relates to a new and concrete method of computer-simulated radioscopy and aid to surgery. It finds its preferred applications in micro- endo-nasal or intra-spinal surgery, in intra-cerebral neurosurgery, in particular as a replacement for stereotaxic surgery, and also in orthopedics.
- the method comprises the following stages: one proceeds to the exhaustive volumetric acquisition of digital images by scanography, imaging means by nuclear magnetic resonance or equivalent, of the region to be operated; a set of static sensors fixed to a bone tissue fixed to the region to be operated is placed on the patient and determining a reference frame of coordinates at least three-dimensional; a correlation is ensured between the digital images acquired and the above-mentioned reference frame; all the useful characteristics of the micro-instruments that the surgeon has to use during the operation are digitally entered; a dynamic topological sensor is fixed on the micro-instrument used by the surgeon, in a lockable manner and at a determined point; the position of the dynamic sensor is determined at all times with respect to the above-mentioned reference frame and the precise position of the distal end of the micro-instrument used is calculated; and the precise position at least of the distal end of the micro ⁇ instrument is displayed in real time on a screen during operation on the digital image corresponding to this position.
- the dynamic topological sensor is fixed to the proximal part of the micro-instrument outside the operating field.
- the sensors can use all known physical principles (electromagnetic field, optical field or infrared, ultrasound, microwave, metal detectors, etc.), and combinations thereof. However, electromagnetic type sensors are preferred because they determine a six-dimensional signal including the spatial coordinates and the angular coordinates of the dynamic topological sensor.
- the hazardous areas close to the operated region are determined on the digital image, the coordinates of these areas are recorded, and during the operation, a warning signal is determined as a function of the distance between the micro ⁇ instrument and, in particular, its distal end, and closest to the danger zones.
- Figure 1 schematically represents the installation required for the implementation of the method according to the invention.
- Figure 2 shows schematically a micro-instrument provided with sensors according to the invention.
- the installation required for the implementation of the method for assisting the surgeon in microsurgery essentially comprises a computer 2 provided with a large computing capacity for managing images in real time.
- This computer is connected to a screen 4 forming a monitor for displaying the images processed and stored in an appropriate memory 6.
- This memory is favorably connected by modulator-demodulator and telephone line of a switched network 8 to a scanning processing center. 10.
- the CT processing center 10 is generally far from the operating room where the surgeon will practice, and it is necessary for him to receive digitized images.
- the monitor can also receive images from the microscope and the endoscope 12 via the computer 2.
- the control of the computer by the surgeon is done, for example, by voice or by foot, by means of an input device 14 comprising a validation key and means for moving a cursor accessible to the foot.
- a set 16 of static sensors is previously fixed on the patient, for example on a bone tissue secured to the region where the surgeon must operate.
- sensor is meant a device making it possible to identify at least one position.
- This set 16 of static sensors will make it possible to determine a reference frame necessary for monitoring the micro ⁇ instrument during the operation.
- At least one of these static sensors can favorably be secured to a bone area, for example to the skull, before the actual operation, while another will, for example, be secured to the palatal vault by means of a Inflatable balloon intended to fill the intra-oral volume and to limit mechanical stresses.
- a single judiciously placed static sensor is sufficient, but the addition of a second sensor makes it possible to validate the information at any time.
- one of the static sensors detaches from the bone tissue, its movement will be automatically detected by the other sensor before it can result in the slightest error.
- a dynamic topological sensor 18 is locked on the micro-instrument used by the surgeon. Usually, ten instruments are more than enough for the intervention with, at most, two instruments used simultaneously.
- the preferred system then comprises four sensors, two static 16 and two dynamic 18 temporarily locked to the instrument used.
- micro-instrument When the micro-instrument has a mobile part (micro-scissors or pliers, for example), it is necessary to know its degree of opening. An analog potentiometer 20 of potentiometer type is then added to the micro-instrument.
- these sensors 16 and 18 each separately analyze the ambient electromagnetic field emitted by the interface 22.
- the micro-instruments are made of a non-ferromagnetic material, for example plastic or titanium.
- these sensors 16, 18 will use other aforementioned physical signals.
- the static 16 and dynamic sensors 18 are connected to an interface 22 whose output signal is applied to an input of the computer 2.
- This output signal gives, in real time, the measurement of the precise position of the dynamic sensor 18 in six dimensions including the Cartesian spatial coordinates of the sensor and the angular coordinates of its orientation of the pitch, yaw and roll type.
- FIG. 2 shows, by way of example, a micro-clamp 24 usually used in microsurgery.
- the opening angle ⁇ of the distal end forming a clamp 26 is measured by means of the analog sensor 20, while the dynamic topological sensor 18 is fixed to the proximal part of the micro-instrument at a determined point. It is necessary to relocate the sensor 18, so that the physical signal, for example electromagnetic signal, does not have to pass through the patient's tissues.
- a sensor fixed to the distal part of the micro-instrument would be troublesome both for the surgeon's vision and for his manipulation.
- the system is initialized by the surgeon by touching, with his microphone -instrument, a precise point of the patient, for example the inter-incisor gap or an external canthus, point easily deter inable both on the digital image and on the patient.
- the surgeon can control the computer 2 by means of the input device 14 or by voice to select a function, make an image enlargement, etc.
- the screen 4 On the screen 4, the precise position of the distal end of the micro-instrument and, simultaneously, the two-dimensional digital image corresponding to this position.
- the screen 4 comprises several zones making it possible to display a plurality of two-dimensional images in different planes so as to make neighboring zones visible to the surgeon. that he cannot physically see directly, and / or three-dimensional images.
- the surgeon determines on the digital image the dangerous zones close to the place where he is going to operate.
- the coordinates of these danger zones are then stored in memory 6.
- the computer emits a warning signal when the distal end of the micro-instrument approaches one of these danger zones.
- this warning signal is an audible signal whose frequency is a function of the exact distance between any part of the micro ⁇ instrument used and the closest to these danger zones.
- This warning signal can also be a voice signal indicating the precise distance. This ensures security, especially when a dangerous area is absolutely not visible directly to the surgeon.
- all of the images displayed during the operation are recorded in memory 6.
- This recording can then constitute a post-operative magnetic report.
- the recording can be favorably used for educational or post-operative analysis purposes.
- the recording must be locked automatically to avoid any subsequent manipulation of the images (by analogy to what is commonly called “black box” in aviation). Such locking is necessary in forensic applications of the invention.
