Researchers have developed a novel framework called DefSynUS that enables real-time, patient-specific identification of intrahepatic vessels during liver surgery. This system utilizes preoperative CT scans to generate synthetic ultrasound data, which is then adapted to intraoperative ultrasound conditions. A key feature is its deformation-aware augmentation, simulating realistic tissue motion and deformation to maintain identification accuracy even with patient movement. AI
