Bronchoscopy Guidance Systems

  • “Manual” lung cancer assessment is HARD!!
  • EM-, image-, and sensor-based bronchoscopy

guidance systems mitigate difficulty, but ….

  • Need an attending technician
  • Need extra hardware
  • Unable to detect faulty maneuvers
  • Lengthy re-synchronization after adverse events

Our Approach to Image-Guided Bronchoscopy

  • 1. Pre-procedure planning – Khare SPIE MI 2011
  • Compute natural bronchoscope navigation maneuvers
  • 2. Bronchoscopy navigation – Khare SPIE MI 2010 & 2012
  • Technician-free guidance
  • Enable bronchoscope position verification

via global registration

SLIDE 6

Precompute Guidance Paths

using standard bronchoscope maneuvers

  • 1. Rotate bronchoscope to left or right
  • 2. Flex bronchoscope tip
  • 3. Advance / withdraw bronchoscope

Pre-Procedure Planning

Previous angle = 0 Previous angle = +90 Previous angle = -90 Positive angle: CW rotation Negative angle: CCW rotation CW ~ 30 Go “UP” CCW ~ -150 Go “DOWN” CW ~ 30 Go “UP”

Guidance Strategy

  • 1. Real and virtual bronchoscopes positioned at main carina.
  • 2. Physician presses foot pedal to advance system display.

Virtual bronchoscope rotates.

  • 3. Physician mimics maneuver by moving bronchoscope.

Real and virtual bronchoscopes become synchronized.

  • 4. Physician presses foot pedal to advance system display.

System display depicts next bifurcation and freezes the previous view.

  • 5. Physician copies maneuver by moving bronchoscope.

Real and virtual bronchoscopes become synchronized.

  • 6. Physician presses foot pedal to activate targeting circles.

Physician properly positions bronchoscope and invokes global registration.

  • 7. Global registration  verifies current real bronchoscope’s position.
  • 8. If the physician makes a WRONG “off path” maneuver …
  • 9. Physician presses foot pedal  targeting circles appear.

Physician properly positions bronchoscope and invokes global registration.

  • 10. Global registration  Catches navigation error, suggests corrective action.

1) Phantom Study Results

Phantom 1: 5 ROIs Phantom 2: 6 ROIs

SLIDE 11

Phantom Study Results

* Indicates bronchoscope unable to reach last airway generation

  • Successful guidance to ALL ROIs
  • “success” = reach final airway
  • Bronchoscope navigation as deep as airway generation 12
  • ROIs 4, 5 for 21405.3a: penultimate airway generation reached

2) Human Pilot Study: Results

  • 9 consented patients; 39 total ROIs
  • Bronchoscopes used: Olympus BF 1T180 (6 mm) or BF P180 (4.9 mm)
  • Physician underwent multiple training sessions during study
  • Physician previewed preplanned routes before each procedure

Human Study Results

  • 97% Success rate (38/39 ROIs)
  • Navigated as deep as airway generation 10
  • Failure occurred during first pilot case
  • System suggested a wrong maneuver (a bug!)
  • We upgraded the system after this case!
  • Tumor prevented complete approach

to 2 ROIs, but guidance succeeded

Conclusion

  • Technician-free bronchoscopy guidance system
  • Relies on natural bronchoscope movements
  • Nearly perfect navigation success: phantoms, humans
