Population-based Respiratory 4D Motion Atlas Construction and its Application for VR Simulations of Liver Punctures

André Mastmeyer, Matthias Wilms, Heinz Handels

Abstract

Virtual reality (VR) training simulators of liver needle insertion in the hepatic area of breathing virtual patients often need 4D image data acquisitions as a prerequisite. Here, first a population-based breathing virtual patient 4D atlas is built and second the requirement of a dose-relevant or expensive acquisition of a 4D CT or MRI data set for a new patient can be mitigated by warping the mean atlas motion. The breakthrough contribution of this work is the construction and reuse of population-based, learned 4D motion models.
