AI-Assisted 3D Reconstruction for Lung Resection Planning

23. september 2026 oppdatert av: Giacomo Argento, S. Andrea Hospital

Prospective Validation of an Artificial Intelligence-Based 3D Reconstruction Model for Preoperative Planning of Lung Resection.

This prospective observational study aims to validate an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system for automated three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of pulmonary anatomy from preoperative chest computed tomography (CT) scans in patients undergoing lung resection.

The AI system will automatically identify and reconstruct relevant pulmonary anatomical structures, including pulmonary arteries, veins, bronchi, lobes, and segments. AI-generated 3D reconstructions will be compared with expert manual 3D reconstructions and with anatomical findings documented during surgery.

The primary objective is to assess the anatomical accuracy of AI-generated 3D reconstructions in identifying surgically relevant bronchovascular anatomy and anatomical variants. Secondary objectives include evaluating accuracy for individual anatomical structures, discrepancies between automated and manual reconstructions, concordance with intraoperative findings, and the time required to generate and review the automated reconstruction.

The study is observational and will not modify the planned surgical procedure or standard patient care.

Detaljert beskrivelse

Patients scheduled for anatomical lung resection who meet the study eligibility criteria will be prospectively enrolled. Preoperative contrast-enhanced chest CT images acquired as part of routine clinical care will be used for 3D reconstruction.

For each patient, an AI-based segmentation system will generate a 3D reconstruction of the relevant pulmonary anatomy, including pulmonary arterial, venous and bronchial structures, as well as lobar and segmental anatomy when applicable. The automated reconstruction will be reviewed without modifying the planned surgical treatment.

AI-generated reconstructions will be compared with expert manual 3D reconstructions and with anatomical findings documented intraoperatively. Particular attention will be given to the identification of surgically relevant bronchovascular branches and anatomical variants.

The primary analysis will assess the proportion of patients in whom the AI-generated reconstruction accurately represents all predefined surgically relevant anatomical structures for the planned resection, without clinically relevant omissions or incorrect structures.

Secondary analyses will assess performance at the individual anatomical-structure level, including arterial, venous and bronchial structures; characterize errors and discrepancies between automated and manual reconstruction; evaluate concordance with intraoperative anatomy; and assess the time required for automated reconstruction and expert review.

The study is a prospective, single-center observational validation study. All diagnostic and therapeutic decisions, including the indication and type of lung resection, will be made according to standard clinical practice independently of study participation.

Prospective Validation Cohort

Patients undergoing lung resection who are prospectively enrolled for validation of the AI-based 3D reconstruction system. Preoperative CT images will be processed by the AI system, and the resulting 3D reconstructions will be compared with expert manual reconstruction and intraoperative anatomical findings.

Preoperative contrast-enhanced chest CT images will be processed using an artificial intelligence-based segmentation system to automatically generate three-dimensional reconstructions of pulmonary anatomy, including pulmonary arteries, veins, bronchi, lobes, and segments when applicable. The AI-generated reconstructions will be evaluated against expert manual 3D reconstruction and intraoperative anatomical findings. The AI output will not determine or modify the planned surgical treatment.

Tidsramme: From preoperative CT imaging through completion of the surgical procedure

Proportion of patients in whom the AI-generated 3D reconstruction correctly represents all predefined surgically relevant pulmonary arterial, venous, and bronchial structures and anatomical variants for the planned lung resection, without clinically relevant omissions or incorrectly represented structures. Accuracy will be assessed by comparison with expert manual 3D reconstruction and intraoperative anatomical findings.
