Validation of Smartbrush Angio Registration for Frameless Stereotactic Targeting of Brain AVM

Event: 8th International Conference of the Novalis Circle 2018
Topic: Vascular radiosurgery
Year: 2018

Ingrid Kuijper, MSc, from the Amsterdam University Medical Center discusses her department’s validation of Elements SmartBrush Angio registration for frameless stereotactic targeting of brain arteriovenous malformations (AVM). She begins by outlining the use of frames in AVM treatment for patient positioning but also for the registration of 3D CT with 2D digital subtraction angiography (DSA) scans. She then describes the methods and materials of the study followed by the workflow steps of the SmartBrush Angio software. She then delves into the results of the study including outliers using case examples and ends with conclusions drawn from the study.

I'd like to thank the Brainlab organization for having this opportunity to present here our work on the validation of the Smartbrush Angio. And we did that too also to facilitate the frameless treatment of AVMS. This is my disclosure. So from the last two decades, an invasive frame was very common to use for treatment of AVMs, but this was not only used for accurate positioning of the patients so they'd lay very still during treatments but also to register a 3D CT scan with a 2D DSA scan using the localized box as you can see here. So...
