Abstract

Aiming at the puncture and drainage of clinical intracranial hematoma, we proposed an adaptive bifurcation algorithm based on the hematoma point cloud and optimized the design of the drainage tube. Firstly, based on the CT data of intracranial hematoma patients, a three-dimensional hematoma model was established, the point cloud on the surface of the hematoma was extracted and simplified, and the location of the main drainage tube was located by using the long-axis extraction algorithm. Secondly, the Eight Diagrams algorithm was used to identify the internal point cloud of hematoma, and the positions of multiple absorption points were determined by the K-means clustering algorithm. The locations of the bifurcation points of the main drainage tubes were calculated by the numerical method, and the telescopic lengths and directions of multiple subdrainage tubes were obtained. Finally, connect the main tube and the subtube, design an adaptive bifurcation drainage tube model, and apply it to intracranial hematoma puncture and drainage surgery. The algorithm can accurately determine the puncture point, puncture path, number, and location of subdrainage tubes according to the geometric characteristics of hematoma, achieve a uniform and accurate dose adjustment and drainage of intracranial hematoma, and accelerate the dissolution and drainage speed. The application of an adaptive bifurcation drainage tube can significantly reduce the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage, intracranial infection, and other complications, which has certain guiding significance and application value in clinical practice.

Highlights

  • At present, craniotomy is often used clinically to remove intracranial hematoma in patients

  • The traditional drainage tube was optimized into an adaptive bifurcation drainage tube that could be customized according to different hematoma conditions

  • It makes the introduction of the hemolytic agent and the derivation of hematoma fluid precise

Summary

Introduction

Craniotomy is often used clinically to remove intracranial hematoma in patients. Neuronavigation hematoma puncture technology can quickly and accurately remove an intracranial hematoma, intraoperative puncture direction, puncture point, and puncture depth can be controlled, and the drainage tube can be and accurately placed into the hematoma cavity, avoiding the blindness of traditional puncture [3]. It is an important means for clinical treatment of cerebral hemorrhage and improvement of prognosis. Clinicians can use the adaptive bifurcated drainage tube designed in this paper to conduct preoperative simulation, avoid important parts of the brain, and achieve accurate puncture of hematoma, reducing the risk and time of treatment [7,8,9]
