IMPOVOL Reconstruction of Anatomical Structures from UltraSound Slices and 3D Print
- 1. IMPOVOL Reconstruction of Anatomical Structures from UltraSound Slices and 3D Print Prof. Franco Simini Universidad de la República – URUGUAY Bin@Sheffield, 10-12 Nov 2014
- 2. THE PROBLEM A SOLUTION THE PLOT THICKENS …. UNEXPECTED RESULTS A NEW EQUIPMENT TO OFFER
- 3. THE PROBLEM • Kidneys with polyquistosis are difficult to measure • Renal volume is needed for follow up • CT scan cannot be repeated How can renal volume be estimated non invasively?
- 4. Ultra Sound Imaging Used routinely by nephrologists Non ionizing Repeatable Affordable
- 5. But US imaging is Usually only qualitative User dependant Volume estimated by formula 2D image only for DICOM Poor documentation for ECR
- 6. NEFROVOL Parallel 2D images along main axis User to define boundaries in each 2D Build a mesh Extrapolate at the ends Count contained elements Use scale to estimate volume
- 7. Design
- 8. NEFROVOL
- 23. Report for ECR in CDA format
- 24. NEFROVOL to monitor volume • Not very precise • Repeatability tests pending • Only indicative volume • Self reference of patient • Graph over months or years available
- 25. Difficulty with patient communication • What if the volume is 3D printed ?
- 28. 3D printer produced by: Start up firm of Cochabamba, Bolivia
- 29. Support from the Bolivian:
- 30. Small Enterprise to intregrate NEFROVOL into IMPOVOL: Start up firm of Montevideo, Uruguay
- 32. NEFROVOL is a project of nib in cooperation with Nephrology Department of Hospital de Clínicas: Mauro Sitrin, Esteban Arrua, D.I. Luciana Urruty, Dr. Oscar Noboa, Dr. Diego Tobal e Ing. Franco Simini. La Impresora 3D es un desarrollo de SAWERS, Cochabamba, en una iniciativa de cooperación de la Universidad Mayor San Simón de Bolivia y de la Universidad de la República. La integración y distribución son de Bullseye, Montevideo. Setiembre 2014.
- 33. IMPOVOL • It is a new idea • Give a PVC model of an inner organ to MDs for interaction with patients, not just a standard organ • Give a real reproduction of organs for surgery planning, instruction, strategic decisions, reconstruction, tc
- 34. By product DICOM new object type: CT-like set of images for US specifying number of cuts
- 35. What do you think of it?
- 37. Thank you !
