{Abstract}: OBJECTIVE: This study aims to explore the application potential of 3D visualization technology based in emergency hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage surgery in primary hospitals. The specific goal is to use 3DSlicer software to perform 3D reconstruction and body surface projection on patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage, provide accurate hematoma location information, help surgeons determine the specific location of hematoma on the body surface, and reduce the expansion of surgical incisions.
METHODS: 3D reconstruction technology based on 3DSlicer software was employed to process CT images of patients with cerebral hemorrhage. By segmenting and reconstructing the images, a 3D model of the hematoma was generated and projected onto the patient's body surface. Utilizing the functionalities of 3DSlicer software in conjunction with the surgeon's anatomical knowledge, accurate hematoma positioning on the body surface was achieved.
RESULTS: 23 patients were enrolled in this study, and underwent successful surgical evacuation. The implementation of 3D visualization technology using 3DSlicer software is expected to provide precise hematoma localization information for emergency hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage surgery in primary hospitals. This approach will enable surgeons to accurately determine the appropriate surgical incision, thereby minimizing unnecessary trauma and improving the overall success rate of surgery.
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates the potential application of 3D visualization technology based on 3DSlicer software in emergency hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage surgery within primary hospitals. By utilizing 3DSlicer software for hematoma localization, accurate information support can be provided to assist surgeons in managing patients with hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage.
