Abstract
PURPOSE: Effective aggregation of intraoperative x-ray images that capture the patient anatomy from multiple view-angles has the potential to enable and improve automated image analysis that can be readily performed during surgery. We present multi-perspective region-based neural networks that leverage knowledge of the imaging geometry for automatic vertebrae labeling in Long-Film images - a novel tomographic imaging modality with an extended field-of-view for spine imaging.
