Definitions
- CT computed tomography
- interventional procedure in which temperature monitoring of tissue being treated is of interest.
- the following is also amenable to other imaging such as x-ray, fluoroscopy and/or other imaging used in connection with such interventional procedures.
- a limitation of some interventional procedures like ablation is a high recurrence rate due to under-ablation or inadequate safety margin. Furthermore, some complications are caused by over-ablation, which may damage adjacent healthy tissue. Real-time temperature monitoring may facilitate mitigating such issues and allow for iterative interventional procedure plan adjustment for preventing under-ablation, overtreatment and/potential damage to adjacent tissue.
- Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging can be used to monitor temperature changes in tissue during ablation and/or other procedures.
- MR imaging a change in temperature causes a linearly proportional change in the resonant frequency of protons within a magnetic field, and is thus temperature change is detectable using a phase sensitive pulse sequence scanning called "proton resonant frequency shift (PRFS)."
- PRFS phase sensitive pulse sequence scanning
- two images are obtained at two different points in time and the phase difference between them is used to calculate the temperature difference at each pixel.
- PRFS imaging results in temperature sampling densities of volume equal to densities of the image pixels. This data is used for planning and delivery and post-treatment assessment of tissue damage.
- ablations are typically performed with ultrasound or CT guidance; rarely is MR guidance used during ablations because of limited MR compatible equipment and/or MR scanners access.
- real-time temperature monitoring currently is not possible with CT, and predetermined ablation zones provided by manufacturers do not take into account tissue properties, heterogeneity of tumor tissue, heat sync, or patient motion. Many factors affect the ablation zone including patient characteristics, tumor histology and location, and the type of energy used for the ablation.
- predetermined ablation zones provided by manufacturers do not take into account tissue properties, heterogeneity of tumor tissue, heat sync, or patient motion. Many factors affect the ablation zone including patient characteristics, tumor histology and location, and the type of energy used for the ablation.
- a computing device includes a thermal map generator that generates a thermal map for image data voxels or pixels representing a volume or region of interest of a subject based on thermometry image data, which includes voxels or pixels indicating a change in a temperature in the volume or region of interest, and a predetermined change in voxel or pixel value to temperature lookup table and a display that visually presents the thermal map in connection with image data of the volume or region of interest.
- a method includes generating a thermal map for image data voxels or pixels representing a volume or region of interest of a subject based on
- thermometry image data which includes voxels or pixels indicating a change in a
- a computer readable storage medium is encoded with computer readable instructions.
- the computer readable instructions when executed by a processor, cause the processor to: generate and display a thermal map for image data voxels or pixels representing a volume or region of interest of a subject during an interventional procedure based on thermometry image data, which includes voxels or pixels indicating a change in a temperature in the volume or region of interest, and a predetermined change in voxel or pixel value to temperature lookup table.
- the invention may take form in various components and arrangements of components, and in various steps and arrangements of steps.
- the drawings are only for purposes of illustrating the preferred embodiments and are not to be construed as limiting the invention.
- FIGURE 1 schematically illustrates an example imaging system in connection with a computing device configured for real-time temperature monitoring of tissue of interest for interventional procedures using image data.
- FIGURE 2 illustrates a relationship between a change in voxel or pixel value and temperature of the tissue the voxel or pixel represents.
- FIGURE 3 illustrates a baseline image with a temperature map superimposed over a volume or region of interest.
- FIGURE 4 illustrates an example method for monitoring tissue temperature during an interventional procedure.
- the following describes an approach for generating and presenting a thermal map for a volume or region of interest in an object or subject for a needle based
- interventional procedure such as RF, laser, microwave, HIFU, etc. ablation and/or pharmaceutical delivery, based on baseline and intermittent CT data, such as cone beam CT and/or conventional CT data, and/or x-ray or fluoroscopy data.
- CT data such as cone beam CT and/or conventional CT data, and/or x-ray or fluoroscopy data.
- the thermal map is generated and presented in real-time (i.e., as the ablation or pharmaceutical delivery is being performed), which allows the interventionalist to mitigate under-ablation (and hence subsequent ablation to finish the ablation), over-ablation, and ensure adequate safety margins. Furthermore, it mitigates risk of infection and/or bleeding related to insertion of
- thermocouples to measure temperature in the volume or region of interest. Moreover, the approach compensates for patient motion (e.g., due to breathing, etc.) and the low resolution image data.
- FIGURE 1 schematically illustrates an imaging system 100.
- the imaging system 100 can alternatively be a convention CT scanner or x-ray imager.
- the scanner includes stationary portion 102, which can be mounted to a ceiling, wall, floor, generally stationary device in an examination room, a portable device with wheels or the like which can be readily transported into and out of the examination room, etc.
- a C-arm 104 is pivotably coupled to the stationary portion 102 via a coupling 106 and is configured to pivot through a predetermined arc (e.g., at least 180 degrees).
- the C- arm 104 can be pivoted before, during and/or after a scanning.
- a radiation source 108 is coupled to one end of the C-arm 104, and a radiation sensitive detector array 110 is coupled to the other end of the C-arm 104.
- the radiation source 108 is separated from the detector array 110 forming an examination region 112 there between.
- a suitable detector array 110 includes a two-dimensional (2D) detector array such as a fiat panel detector or the like.
- the detector array 110 generates a signal in response to detecting radiation. At least one of source 108 or the detector 110 may also move
- the radiation source 108 / detector array 110 can be used to acquire cone beam CT, fluoroscopy, and/or other image data.
- a subject support 114 supports a subject in the examination region 112.
- a reconstructor 117 reconstructs the signal output by the detector array 110 and generates volumetric image data.
- a console 119 controls the imaging system 100, including pivoting the C-arm 104 to a particular angular orientation with respect to the examination region 112, activating the source 108 to emit radiation, activating the detector array 110 to detect radiation, and receiving and/or conveying information with another device.
- An interventional device holder 116 includes a device support 118 for holding an interventional device, an arm 120 for positioning the device support 118 and hence an interventional device supported thereby, and a base 122 that removably affixes to the subject support 114 and supports the arm 120.
- the arm 120 may be moveable through manual and/or electronic means.
- An interventional device 124 such as an ablation device is shown supported by the device support 118.
- An interventional device controller 126 controls the interventional device 124, for example, turning the device on and off.
- the interventional device controller 126 includes hand activated controls, such as a joy stick or the like, that affix to the subject support 114 and control the interventional device 124.
- a foot activated control such as a foot pedal or the like can be used to control the interventional device 124.
- a computing apparatus or device 128 processes imaging data, such as imaging data generated by the imaging system 100 and/or one or more other imaging systems.
- the image data includes baseline image data, for example, image data from a scan after needle placement or after needle re-placement to another position and before the needle is used for an interventional procedure to confirm needle position.
- the image data also includes intermittent image data, for example, image data from one or more scans acquired at one or more different time points during the needle based interventional procedure, for example, to monitor progress of the needle based interventional procedure, such as the temperature of the tissue being treated and surrounding tissue. From the baseline and intermittent image data, the computing apparatus 128 generates a thermal map for a predetermined volume or region of interest.
- the thermal map allows for real-time temperature monitoring while compensating for motion and indicates heat distribution of tissue being treated without using specialized devices such as thermocouples, which may lengthen the procedure, increase the risk of complications (e.g., due to additional needles), and only provide a single point temperature.
- a treatment planner 146 allows an intervention list to plan and/or modify an interventional procedure plan based on the baseline, intermittent, thermal map, and/or other information.
- the baseline image data and the temperature map can be used by the intervention list to ensure proper needle placement, complete ablation, and mitigation of damage to healthy tissue.
- the intervention list can decide whether the needle placement is appropriate or needs to be moved, whether to continue or stop the ablation based on the temperature of the tissue being treated and/or surrounding tissue, etc.
- a treatment navigator 148 visually presents image data that guides the intervention list with inserting and placing the interventional needle with respect to the tissue to be treated.
- the computing apparatus 128 includes an optional recommender 150.
- the recommender 150 provides guidance back to the user regarding on the generated thermal map via the display 145, audio, and/or otherwise.
- the guidance demonstrates where additional heat is needed and optionally provides a path that will ensure the thermal dose is delivered satisfactorily.
- the guidance if a thermal procedure plan is satisfied, provides data that can be used for updating the plan in "real-time," thereby tracking the progress of the treatment.
- the computing apparatus 128 includes an interventional device identifier 130, a volume or region of interest identifier 132, an image registration component 134 and registration algorithm(s) 136, a thermometry image generator 138 and difference algorithm(s) 140, and a thermal map generator 142 and a change in value to temperature lookup table 144.
- the computing apparatus 128 includes at least one processor that executes at least one computer readable instruction stored in computer readable storage medium, such as physical memory or other non-transitory storage medium to implement one or more of the components 130, 132, 134, 138, or 142.
- the processor may also execute one or more computer readable instructions carried by a carrier wave, a signal or other transitory medium.
- the interventional device identifier 130 identifies, in the example, the interventional device needle tip in the baseline image data and in the intermittent image data. In one instance, the interventional device identifier 130 identifies the tip using an automatic object of interest identifying algorithm. In another instance, the interventional device identifier 130 identifies the tip based on user input, for example, identification of the tip using a user identified tip perimeter, a user positioned and size adjusted predetermined geometrical shape, etc. Results of automatic, semi-automatic and manual approaches are confirmed and can be changed by an authorized user.
- the volume or region of interest identifier 132 identifies a volume or region of interest about the identified ablation needle tip (or an ablation zone) in the baseline image data and in the intermittent image data.
- the volume or region of interest identifier 132 identifies the volume or region of interest using an automatic region of interest algorithm, for example, based on a predetermined margin outside the identified tip region.
- the region of interest identifier 132 identifies the region based on user input, for example, a user identified region outside the identified tip region. Pre-determined manufacturer zones can also be used to facilitate identifying the volume or region of interest. Results of automatic, semi-automatic and manual approaches are confirmed and can be changed by an authorized user.
- the image registration component 134 registers the baseline and intermittent image data based on one or more of the registration algorithms 136, including rigid and/or elastic (non-rigid) registration algorithms.
- An example of a suitable registration algorithm is a deformable image registration that compensates for motion between the baseline and intermittent acquisitions such as breathing and/or other motion. The following discusses a non-limiting example of such an algorithm.
- the deformation field is found by minimizing the criterion of point-wise similarity between the target and deformed source images, as shown in EQUATION 3 :
- EQUATION 3 can be posed as an assignment problem in the following way 9 :
- a label assignment u p E L to a grid node x p £ ⁇ ' is associated with displacing the node by the corresponding vector U P .
- EQUATION 3 can thus be posed as discrete Markov random field (MRF) optimization with respect to the labeling, as shown in EQUATION 5 :
- thermometry image generator 138 generates thermometry image data from the registered baseline and intermittent image data based on one or more of the thermometry algorithms 140.
- An example of a suitable thermometry algorithm 140 is a Wronskian change detector, which detects a difference between the baseline and intermittent image data, where a temperature difference is a component of the overall difference between the image data.
- An example of a Wronskian change detector that detects changes in low signal to noise ratio image data is discussed in Durucan et al, "Change detection and background extraction by linear algebra,” Proceedings of the IEEE. 89, 1368-1381, 2001.
- the Wronskian change detector is based on: 1) vector model of images, and 2) concepts of linear dependence/independence between vectors.
- this corresponds to the concepts of linear dependence and linear independence, respectively.
- the decision as to whether a vector is linearly dependent on another provides the possibility to decide whether there has been a change or not.
- a region of support also referred as block defined about a center pixel.
- the number of pixels, w, on either side of this center pixel is defined as the half width of the block.
- the window width of the region of support is 2w + 1.
- n is the size of the region of support. If W ⁇ 0, then changes occur in the position of pixel i, otherwise there is no change. In fact, W computes the negative of the sum of the first derivative of the function / ⁇ The value would increase as the ratio of components increases. Change to this value would be due to contribution of a block of pixels rather than any individual pixel alone.
- thermometry image data is provided for explanatory purposes and is not limiting, and other approaches such as a sum of squared differences for example are also contemplated herein.
- the thermal map generator 142 generates a pixel- wise or voxel- wise thermal or temperature map (e.g., a stack of 2D images centered on the volume of interest) for a region or volume of interest based on the thermometry image and the change in value to temperature lookup table 144, which provides a mapping between the thermometry image data and temperature.
- a uniform phantom such as an agar gel, water, anatomical, and/or other phantom is scanned at a reference temperature (e.g., room temperature or 37°C) and one or more other predetermined or known higher temperatures (e.g., 42°C to 82°C).
- the result can be minimized for the best fit, where n is number of data points and p t are the parameters of the model.
- the number of parameters m for linear and cubic models are 2 and 4, respectively.
- the inverse of the calibration is stored as the lookup table 144.
- FIGURE 2 shows an example change in value to temperature lookup table
- a y-axis 202 represents the mean value of the thermometry image value and an x-axis 204 represents temperature.
- curves are generated based on five (5) data 206, 208, 210, 212 and 214 acquired at five (5) different temperatures.
- a first curve 216 corresponds to a linear fit to the data 206-214
- a second curve 218 corresponds to a cubic fit to the data 206-214.
- the curves 216 or 218 can be saved as the lookup table 144, a polynomial, and/or otherwise.

- One axis 306 of the temperature map portion 304 represents pixels or voxels along one direction
- the other axis 308 of the temperature map portion 304 represents pixels or voxels along another direction, such that the
- temperature map portion 304 represents a 2D array of pixels or voxels of the region or volume of interest.
- a gray-scale is used to represent temperature, with white representing a baseline temperature of the region or volume of interest before heating, black representing a pre-determined maximum temperature of interest, and levels of gray there between transitioning from lighter to darker with an increase in temperature.
- white can be used to represent the pre-determined maximum temperature of interest and black can be used to represent the baseline temperature of the region or volume of interest before heating.
- color can be used instead of the gray scale.
- a first region 310 around the needle tip is hotter than a second region 312 farther away from the needle tip, and this is visually shown through the different shades of gray.
- An optional graphical key 314 can be visually presented mapping gray level to temperature value using tics 316 corresponding particular temperatures and/or corresponding to predetermined temperature increments between particular upper and lower temperatures Tu 318 and T L 320, and/or other approaches.
- a 3D volume (the entire volume or a sub-portion thereof) can additionally or alternatively be displayed in a 3D volume rendered, with the 3D temperature map (the entire map or a sub-portion thereof) superimposed over the volume of interest about the identified needle tip.
