BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Radiofrequency thermocoagulation is an effective method for treating classic trigeminal neuralgia. However, the accurate positioning of thermocoagulation is difficult. The purpose of this study was to design an optimal strategy for performing adjuvant surgery.
METHODS: A total of 60 patients with trigeminal neuralgia were divided into two groups. One group received conventional computed tomography (CT) guided treatment (CT group). In the other group, neural fiber bundles were firstly extracted based on the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. Then, the MRI, CT, and fiber bundle images were fused to visualize the relationship among semilunar ganglion, trigeminal nerve, and puncture needle (fusion group).
RESULTS: Trigeminal fiber bundles were extracted quickly by the contour tracking method, and different types of image fusion were realized for radiofrequency surgery navigation. In the fusion group, 13.3% of patients could not reach semilunar ganglion, and 76.9% of the remaining cases reached the ideal damage area. In the CT group, the preoperative design shows that 26.7% of patients may have puncture difficulty, and 54.5% of remaining cases reached the ideal damage area.
CONCLUSION: The technique of neural bundle extraction and image fusion based on the Hamilton-Jacobi equation can be used to plan the personalized puncture path targeting the semilunar ganglion.
