Team: Haying Liu, Patrick Cheng, Ziv Yaniv, Noby Hata, Paul Morrison
Goals: Create navigated RFA workflow based slicer module with stubs for all procedure steps:
- Load CT data set.
- Segment the volume using a semi-automatic approach (liver, tumor, ribs, blood vessels).
- Manually denote regions as one of:
- Tumor
- Entry region
- No touch - RFA probe cannot pass or ablate this region.
- No pass - RFA probe cannot pass through this region but can ablate.
- Export segmentation to planning module via text file.
- Import plan into Slicer.
- Manually localize fiducials.
- Start IGSTK based tracking process.
- Localize fiducials on patient and perform rigid registration.
- Navigation GUI.
Approach: Implement during IGT and NAMIC project weeks.
Results (to be completed and presented at the end of the week):
