We would like to create an end-to-end application within the NA-MIC Kit to enable an existing transrectal prostate biopsy device to perform multi-parametric MRI guided prostate biopsy in closed-bore high-field MRI magnets.
+
A 3D Slicer based end-to-end application was developed for MRI-guided prostate biopsy (implemented as a [http://www.slicer.org 3D Slicer 3.6] module, [https://www.slicer.org/wiki/Modules:ProstateNav-Documentation-3.6 ProstateNav]). The application supports multiple targeting devices (transrectal robot [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_5 5], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_15 15]], transperineal template, and transperineal robot [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_17 17], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_18 18]]) and multiple needle types (for biopsy and seed placement). Automatic and semi-automatic registration of the targeting device to the planning image coordinate system was implemented using 4 line fiducials or 3 orthogonal Z-shaped fiducials [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_15 15], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_16 16], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_18 18]]. During the planning phase, the clinician defines several point targets for biopsy and seed placement. The 3D Slicer platform provides flexible visualization of several diagnostic image types (T2, contrast-enhanced, etc.). In the targeting phase, the software computes targeting parameters for each site that permit the targeting devices to accurately position the needles. The software offers a means to quantitatively assess the accuracy of needle placement. Patient motion during the intervention (dislocation and deformation between the planning and verification images) can be easily visualized, thereby reducing the chance of incorrect needle placement during lengthy procedures. The software is being tested in phantom experiments at three clinical sites: Brigham and Women's Hospital, NIH National Cancer Institute, and Johns Hopkins Hospital. The software also is being evaluated on patients. The targeting accuracy of the system was evaluated using 3D Slicer and the NA-MIC Kit [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_2 2], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_5 5], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_6 6], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_7 7]].

This page describes the technology roadmap for robotic prostate biopsy in the NA-MIC Kit. The basic components necessary for this application are:
+
[[Image:ProstateNav361Calibration.png|thumb|320px|ProstateNav - Calibration of the transrectal robotic device]]
 +
[[Image:ProstateNav361Planning.png|thumb|320px|ProstateNav - Planning of biopsy and seed targets]]
 +
[[Image:ProstateNav361Targeting.png|thumb|320px|ProstateNav - Targeting parameters displayed in the operating room]]
 +
[[Image:ProstateNav361Verification.png|thumb|320px|ProstateNav - Verification of the needle insertion, the needle is well aligned with planned trajectory]]
  
*'''Tissue segmentation''': Should be multi-modality, correcting for intensity inhomogeneity and work for both supine and prone patients, all imaged with an endorectal coil (ERC).
+
Preliminary prostate segmentation and registration algorithms were developed. The initial results were encouraging and have been published in journals and presented at conferences. Current algorithm implementations are stored in the NA-MIC sandbox repository. After optimization and tuning they will be to be added to the clinical application [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_1 1], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_8 8], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_11 11], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_19 19]]. A fast patient motion detection algorithm, based on slice-to-volume registration, also was developed using the NA-MIC Kit [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_3 3], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_4 4], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_9 9], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_14 14]].
*'''Registration''': co-registration of MRI datasets taken at different times, in different body positions, and under different imaging parameters
+
[[Image:ProstateSegShapeBased.png|thumb|320px|Prostate segmentation using a statistical shape based method [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_8 8]].]]
*'''Prostate Measurement''': Measure volume of all segmented structures
 
*'''Biopsy Device Parameters''': Geometry, kinematics, and calibration/registration of the robot system must be available in some form.  This capability is not currently part of the NA-MIC kit.  The application will be modular, to enable use of different devices.
 
*'''Tutorial''': Documentation will be written for a tutorial and sample data sets will be provided to perform simulated biopsies.
 
  
The primary goal for the roadmap is to develop an interventional module for Slicer3 for MRI-guided prostate biopsies. This module and the accompanying tutorial will serve as a template for interventional applications with Slicer3. The module will provide the necessary functionality for calibrating the robot to the MR scanner, planning biopsies, computing the necessary robot trajectory to perform each biopsy, and verification via post-biopsy images. We will obtain a biopsy plan from multi-parametric endorectal image volumes, executable with an existing prostate biopsy device. The system will be will be implemented under Slicer3 as an interactive application.
+
Applicability of 3D Slicer as a generic computer-assisted intervention platform was evaluated. Several architectural and usability features were identified and implemented that enable effective use of 3D Slicer in the operating room [[{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_10 10], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_12 12], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_13 13], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_15 15], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_16 16], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_17 17], [{{fullurl:{{FULLPAGENAME}}}}#ref_18 18]].

Overview

A 3D Slicer based end-to-end application was developed for MRI-guided prostate biopsy (implemented as a 3D Slicer 3.6 module, ProstateNav). The application supports multiple targeting devices (transrectal robot [5, 15], transperineal template, and transperineal robot [17, 18]) and multiple needle types (for biopsy and seed placement). Automatic and semi-automatic registration of the targeting device to the planning image coordinate system was implemented using 4 line fiducials or 3 orthogonal Z-shaped fiducials [15, 16, 18]. During the planning phase, the clinician defines several point targets for biopsy and seed placement. The 3D Slicer platform provides flexible visualization of several diagnostic image types (T2, contrast-enhanced, etc.). In the targeting phase, the software computes targeting parameters for each site that permit the targeting devices to accurately position the needles. The software offers a means to quantitatively assess the accuracy of needle placement. Patient motion during the intervention (dislocation and deformation between the planning and verification images) can be easily visualized, thereby reducing the chance of incorrect needle placement during lengthy procedures. The software is being tested in phantom experiments at three clinical sites: Brigham and Women's Hospital, NIH National Cancer Institute, and Johns Hopkins Hospital. The software also is being evaluated on patients. The targeting accuracy of the system was evaluated using 3D Slicer and the NA-MIC Kit [2, 5, 6, 7]. [15, 18, 16]

ProstateNav - Calibration of the transrectal robotic device
ProstateNav - Planning of biopsy and seed targets
ProstateNav - Targeting parameters displayed in the operating room
ProstateNav - Verification of the needle insertion, the needle is well aligned with planned trajectory

Preliminary prostate segmentation and registration algorithms were developed. The initial results were encouraging and have been published in journals and presented at conferences. Current algorithm implementations are stored in the NA-MIC sandbox repository. After optimization and tuning they will be to be added to the clinical application [1, 8, 11, 19]. A fast patient motion detection algorithm, based on slice-to-volume registration, also was developed using the NA-MIC Kit [3, 4, 9, 14].

Prostate segmentation using a statistical shape based method [8].

Applicability of 3D Slicer as a generic computer-assisted intervention platform was evaluated. Several architectural and usability features were identified and implemented that enable effective use of 3D Slicer in the operating room [10, 12, 13, 15, 16, 17, 18].

Utilization and further enhancement of the end results are planned in the scope of a new collaboration between NA-MIC/OCAIRO collaboration and through other research grants (applications pending).
