Abstract
Preprocedural planning and periprocedural guidance based on image fusion are widely established techniques supporting the interventional treatment of structural heart disease. However, these two techniques are typically used independently. Previous works have already demonstrated the benefits of integrating planning details into image fusion but are limited to a few applications and the availability of the proprietary tools used. We propose a vendor-independent approach to integrate planning details into periprocedural image fusion facilitating guidance during interventional treatment. In this work, we demonstrate the feasibility of integrating planning details derived from computer tomography and magnetic resonance imaging into periprocedural image fusion with open-source and commercially established tools. The integration of preprocedural planning details into periprocedural image fusion has the potential to support safe and efficient interventional treatment of structural heart disease.
