Intraoperative Effect of 2D vs 3D Fluoroscopy on Quality of Reduction and Patient-Related Outcome in Calcaneal Fracture Surgery.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Three-dimensional (3D) fluoroscopy is thought to be advantageous in the open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) of calcaneal fractures. The goal of this multicenter randomized controlled trial was to investigate the clinical effect of additional intraoperative 3D fluoroscopy on postoperative quality of reduction and fixation and patient-reported outcome as compared to conventional 2-dimensional (2D) fluoroscopy in patients with intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus. METHODS:Patients were randomized to 3D or conventional 2D fluoroscopy during operative treatment of calcaneal fractures. Primary outcome was the difference in quality of fracture reduction and implant position on postoperative computed tomography (CT). Secondary endpoints included intraoperative corrections (prior to wound closure), complications, and revision surgery (after wound closure). Function and patient-reported outcome were evaluated after surgery and included range of motion, Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS), American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, Short-Form 36 (SF-36) questionnaires, and Kellgren-Lawrence posttraumatic osteoarthritis classification. A total of 102 calcaneal fractures were included in the study in 100 patients. Fifty fractures were randomized to the 3D group and 52 to the 2D group. RESULTS:There was a statistically significant difference in duration of surgery between the groups (2D 125 min vs 3D 147 min; P < .001). After 3D fluoroscopy, a total of 57 intraoperative corrections were performed in 28 patients (56%). The postoperative CT scan revealed an indication for additional revision of reduction or implant position in 69% of the 3D group vs 60% in the 2D fluoroscopy group. At 2 years, there was no difference in number of revision surgery, complications, FAOS, AOFAS score, SF-36 score, or posttraumatic osteoarthritis. CONCLUSION:The use of intraoperative 3D fluoroscopy in the treatment of intra-articular calcaneal fractures prolongs the operative procedures without improving the quality of reduction and fixation. There was no benefit of intraoperative 3D fluoroscopy with regard to postoperative complications, quality of life, functional outcome, or posttraumatic osteoarthritis.Level of Evidence: Level I, prospective randomized controlled study.

Project description:PurposeFluoroscopy is the standard imaging modality used to guide hip surgery and is therefore a natural sensor for computer-assisted navigation. In order to efficiently solve the complex registration problems presented during navigation, human-assisted annotations of the intraoperative image are typically required. This manual initialization interferes with the surgical workflow and diminishes any advantages gained from navigation. In this paper, we propose a method for fully automatic registration using anatomical annotations produced by a neural network.MethodsNeural networks are trained to simultaneously segment anatomy and identify landmarks in fluoroscopy. Training data are obtained using a computationally intensive, intraoperatively incompatible, 2D/3D registration of the pelvis and each femur. Ground truth 2D segmentation labels and anatomical landmark locations are established using projected 3D annotations. Intraoperative registration couples a traditional intensity-based strategy with annotations inferred by the network and requires no human assistance.ResultsGround truth segmentation labels and anatomical landmarks were obtained in 366 fluoroscopic images across 6 cadaveric specimens. In a leave-one-subject-out experiment, networks trained on these data obtained mean dice coefficients for left and right hemipelves, left and right femurs of 0.86, 0.87, 0.90, and 0.84, respectively. The mean 2D landmark localization error was 5.0 mm. The pelvis was registered within [Formula: see text] for 86% of the images when using the proposed intraoperative approach with an average runtime of 7 s. In comparison, an intensity-only approach without manual initialization registered the pelvis to [Formula: see text] in 18% of images.ConclusionsWe have created the first accurately annotated, non-synthetic, dataset of hip fluoroscopy. By using these annotations as training data for neural networks, state-of-the-art performance in fluoroscopic segmentation and landmark localization was achieved. Integrating these annotations allows for a robust, fully automatic, and efficient intraoperative registration during fluoroscopic navigation of the hip.

Project description:BackgroundGastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignant tumors. After resection, one of the major problems is its peritoneal dissemination and recurrence. Some free cancer cells may still exist after resection. In addition, the surgery itself may lead to the dissemination of tumor cells. Therefore, it is necessary to remove residual tumor cells. Recently, some researchers found that extensive intraoperative peritoneal lavage (EIPL) plus intraperitoneal chemotherapy can improve the prognosis of patients and eradicate peritoneal free cancer for GC patients. However, few studies explored the safety and long-term outcome of EIPL after curative gastrectomy.AimTo evaluate the efficacy and long-term outcome of advanced GC patients treated with EIPL.MethodsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, a total of 150 patients with advanced GC were enrolled in this study. The patients were randomly allocated to two groups. All patients received laparotomy. For the non-EIPL group, peritoneal lavage was washed using no more than 3 L of warm saline. In the EIPL group, patients received 10 L or more of saline (1 L at a time) before the closure of the abdomen. The surviving rate analysis was compared by the Kaplan-Meier method. The prognostic factors were carried out using the Cox appropriate hazard pattern.ResultsThe basic information in the EIPL group and the non-EIPL group had no significant difference. The median follow-up time was 30 mo (range: 0-45 mo). The 1- and 3-year overall survival (OS) rates were 71.0% and 26.5%, respectively. The symptoms of ileus and abdominal abscess appeared more frequently in the non-EIPL group (P < 0.05). For the OS of patients, the EIPL, Borrmann classification, tumor size, N stage, T stage and vascular invasion were significant indicators. Then multivariate analysis revealed that EIPL, tumor size, vascular invasion, N stage and T stage were independent prognostic factors. The prognosis of the EIPL group was better than the non-EIPL group (P < 0.001). The 3-year survival rate of the EIPL group (38.4%) was higher than the non-EIPL group (21.7%). For the recurrence-free survival (RFS) of patients, the risk factor of RFS included EIPL, N stage, vascular invasion, type of surgery, tumor location, Borrmann classification, and tumor size. EIPL and tumor size were independent risk factors. The RFS curve of the EIPL group was better than the non-EIPL group (P = 0.004), and the recurrence rate of the EIPL group (24.7%) was lower than the non-EIPL group (46.4%). The overall recurrence rate and peritoneum recurrence rate in the EIPL group was lower than the non-EIPL group (P < 0.05).ConclusionEIPL can reduce the possibility of perioperative complications including ileus and abdominal abscess. In addition, the overall survival curve and RFS curve were better in the EIPL group.

Project description:Surgical reduction of pelvic dislocation is a challenging procedure with poor long-term prognosis if reduction does not accurately restore natural morphology. The procedure often requires long fluoroscopic exposure times and trial-and-error to achieve accurate reduction. We report a method to automatically compute the target pose of dislocated bones in preoperative CT and provide 3D guidance of reduction using routine 2D fluoroscopy. A pelvic statistical shape model (SSM) and a statistical pose model (SPM) were formed from an atlas of 40 pelvic CT images. Multi-body bone segmentation was achieved by mapping the SSM to a preoperative CT via an active shape model. The target reduction pose for the dislocated bone is estimated by fitting the poses of undislocated bones to the SPM. Intraoperatively, multiple bones are registered to fluoroscopy images via 3D-2D registration to obtain 3D pose estimates from 2D images. The method was examined in three studies: (1) a simulation study of 40 CT images simulating a range of dislocation patterns; (2) a pelvic phantom study with controlled dislocation of the left innominate bone; (3) a clinical case study investigating feasibility in images acquired during pelvic reduction surgery. Experiments investigated the accuracy of registration as a function of initialization error (capture range), image quality (radiation dose and image noise), and field of view (FOV) size. The simulation study achieved target pose estimation with translational error of median 2.3 mm (1.4 mm interquartile range, IQR) and rotational error of 2.1° (1.3° IQR). 3D-2D registration yielded 0.3 mm (0.2 mm IQR) in-plane and 0.3 mm (0.2 mm IQR) out-of-plane translational error, with in-plane capture range of ±50 mm and out-of-plane capture range of ±120 mm. The phantom study demonstrated 3D-2D target registration error of 2.5 mm (1.5 mm IQR), and the method was robust over a large dose range, down to 5 [Formula: see text]Gy/frame (an order of magnitude lower than the nominal fluoroscopic dose). The clinical feasibility study demonstrated accurate registration with both preoperative and intraoperative radiographs, yielding 3.1 mm (1.0 mm IQR) projection distance error with robust performance for FOV ranging from 340 × 340 mm2 to 170 × 170 mm2 (at the image plane). The method demonstrated accurate estimation of the target reduction pose in simulation, phantom, and a clinical feasibility study for a broad range of dislocation patterns, initialization error, dose levels, and FOV size. The system provides a novel means of guidance and assessment of pelvic reduction from routinely acquired preoperative CT and intraoperative fluoroscopy. The method has the potential to reduce radiation dose by minimizing trial-and-error and to improve outcomes by guiding more accurate reduction of joint dislocations.

Project description:BackgroundPosttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) of the subtalar joint is a serious, disabling, and frequent complication following intra-articular calcaneal fractures (IACFs). Using plain radiographs to assess the subtalar joint for PTOA is imprecise and insensitive, hindering progress toward improving treatment and assessing outcomes. This study explored how low-dose weightbearing computed tomography (WBCT) can be used to provide reliable, quantitative 3D measures of subtalar joint space width (JSW) following IACF and correlated the 3D JSW with clinical outcomes.MethodsAfter institutional review board approval, 21 patients (15 male; age, 28-70 years) who sustained IACFs and were treated with percutaneous surgical reduction underwent WBCT scans at follow-up visits 2 to 15 years (average, 7.8 years) after surgical treatment. Subtalar joint 3D JSW was computed after a semiautomated protocol was used to segment the talus and calcaneus from the WBCT data. Mean and minimum 3D JSW measurements were calculated and compared with Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) radiographic osteoarthritis grade, RAND-36 Physical (PCS) and Mental (MCS) Component Scores, and visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores. Spearman's rank correlation was used to detect the strength of association between variables, with significance set at P < .05.ResultsMean 3D JSW values measured from WBCT for patients with IACFs ranged from 0.9 to 2.5 mm (1.7 ± 0.4 mm) over the entire subtalar joint. Intra- and interrater reliabilities for the WBCT-based JSW measurement technique were 0.95 (95% CI, 0.91-0.97) and 0.97 (95% CI, 0.95-0.98), respectively. Mean and minimum 3D JSW values correlated inversely with VAS pain scores and KL grade (P < .05), particularly in central and posterior subtalar regions.ConclusionWBCT-based methods were used to quantify the preservation/loss of JSW in patients with IACFs, enabling more accurate, definitive measurement of subtalar PTOA. The results of this study demonstrate that WBCT can be utilized to objectively assess subtalar PTOA and help us to better understand how arthritic changes affect actual patient experience.Level of evidenceLevel III, prognostic comparative study.

Project description:Predicting motion is essential for many everyday life activities, e.g., in road traffic. Previous studies on motion prediction failed to find consistent results, which might be due to the use of very different stimulus material and behavioural tasks. Here, we directly tested the influence of task (detection, extrapolation) and stimulus features (visual vs. audiovisual and three-dimensional vs. non-three-dimensional) on temporal motion prediction in two psychophysical experiments. In both experiments a ball followed a trajectory toward the observer and temporarily disappeared behind an occluder. In audiovisual conditions a moving white noise (congruent or non-congruent to visual motion direction) was presented concurrently. In experiment 1 the ball reappeared on a predictable or a non-predictable trajectory and participants detected when the ball reappeared. In experiment 2 the ball did not reappear after occlusion and participants judged when the ball would reach a specified position at two possible distances from the occluder (extrapolation task). Both experiments were conducted in three-dimensional space (using stereoscopic screen and polarised glasses) and also without stereoscopic presentation. Participants benefitted from visually predictable trajectories and concurrent sounds during detection. Additionally, visual facilitation was more pronounced for non-3D stimulation during detection task. In contrast, for a more complex extrapolation task group mean results indicated that auditory information impaired motion prediction. However, a post hoc cross-validation procedure (split-half) revealed that participants varied in their ability to use sounds during motion extrapolation. Most participants selectively profited from either near or far extrapolation distances but were impaired for the other one. We propose that interindividual differences in extrapolation efficiency might be the mechanism governing this effect. Together, our results indicate that both a realistic experimental environment and subject-specific differences modulate the ability of audiovisual motion prediction and need to be considered in future research.
