The proposed research will develop a computational framework, which will allow matching high quality pre-operative brain images with lower resolution images taken during neurosurgery. The key idea to be pursued is conducting computations on a Graphical Processing Unit (GPU). The success of this work will greatly improve effectiveness of brain tumour removal, and therefore improve clinical outcomes. The proposed work will provide enabling technology for other areas of computer aided medicine, such as virtual reality operation planning systems with realistic force and tactile feedback, control systems of neurosurgical robots with tissue deformation prediction module, etc.

拟议的研究将开发一个计算框架，该框架将允许将高质量的术前脑图像与神经外科手术期间拍摄的低分辨率图像进行匹配。要追求的关键思想是在图形处理单元（GPU）上进行计算。这项工作的成功将大大提高脑肿瘤切除的有效性，从而改善临床结果。这项工作将为计算机辅助医学的其他领域提供使能技术，例如具有真实力和触觉反馈的虚拟现实手术规划系统，具有组织变形预测模块的神经外科机器人控制系统等。
