Extension Description
VolumeRelisceDriver is a module to update volume resample (or reslice) plane by:
- Linear transform node imported from external 3D tracking tools through OpenIGTLink
- Position and orientation of 2D imaging plane imported from external imaging scanners such as ultrasound and MRI
The module is designed for image-guided therapy applications, where surgical tools are navigated by resliced volumetric image or real-time images.
Use Cases
- Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS)-guided prostate interventions
- Neurosurgical navigation
- Navigation for RF/cryo ablation of abdominal organ.
