Abstract:

Intraoperative thermographic imaging, associated with time-resolved data analysis, is used to identify and visualise functional areas and pathological tissue in brain surgery. In this contribution we propose a hardware-software system for real-time pre-processing, fusion, and analysis of concurrent infrared and whitelight recordings. As a proof-of-concept, a digital temporal filter is applied to the removal of motion artefacts. To provide the required processing power in an intraoperative environment, the system is implemented on an FPGA device.
