The compensation for tissue deformation is a significant concern in computer-assisted
navigation for soft organ surgeries. In brain surgeries, brain shift depends on surgical
conditions, but might be almost non-negligible to realize precise navigation. Since organ
deformations can cause large navigation error, most applications are still in orthopedic
surgeries. Another problem in navigation is intuitive visualization of surgical plans. A number
of techniques such as augmented reality and projection mapping have been proposed for it.
However, most systems do not support any compensation for organ deformation. Therefore,
we propose a method of PM surgical navigation that supports the compensation for brain-shift
deformation. The proposed system reduced error in brain deformation tracking to around one
second and showed the feasibility of PM in brain surgeries.
