Brainlab iPlan® BOLD MRI Mapping

Easier and Faster Functional Planning

BrainLAB provides a significant leap in neurosurgical planning by integrating BOLD MRI (Blood Oxygen Level Dependent functional MRI) data directly into the OR and image-guided surgery. This iPlan module allows anatomical images to be enhanced with functional maps showing perceptual, motoric and cognitive areas, leading to more refined surgical approaches and improved patient treatment.

BOLD MRI imaging can be fused with other imaging modalities and overlaid onto other anatomical or functional images. The display and selection of designated functional areas together with other objects like tumors is made easy with an intuitive user interface and advanced image processing.

Automated import of DICOM BOLD MRI data
Automatic detection of functional activations
Interactive selection and display of functional areas and regions of interest
Flexible definition of different functional paradigms
Conversion into 3D objects for use in navigation

BOLD MRI Mapping & FiberTracking

BrainLAB is the only company to offer an FDA-approved combination of BOLD MRI functional imaging with detailed diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) for use in the OR and navigated neurosurgery. The integration of both of these imaging modalities provides not only vital functional areas but also the eloquent white matter structures.

The result is a comprehensive functional planning suite, providing completely new insights into surgical anatomy for improved planning that will set the standard for the future of functional neurosurgery.
