Use of the Structure of Blood Vessel for Detection of Brain Aneurysm and Route Search to Brain Aneurysm

Abstract

In this research, we constructed functions that are necessary for the operation simulation system which assists medical students to inhibit brain aneurysm from exploding. The system reported in this paper is "detection of blood vessels", "detection of brain aneurysm" and "route planning to brain aneurysm". Not only the detection method but also the method to reduce the miss detection is realized for the detection of blood vessel. Finally, the future work will be shown including construction of head model consisting of artery, vein, brain and cranium.
