简要总结
Study the effect 3D printed or 3D virtual prostate models of a patient, when manipulated by surgeons during RARP, has on positive surgical margins and functional outcomes of patients. Our main hypothesis is that there is a reduction of positive resection margins and functional outcomes of patients undergoing RARP when surgeons are presented with 3D printed or 3D virtual patient-specific prostate models during surgery. Specifically, we hypothesize that the anatomical knowledge of surgeons that results from the manipulation of 3D printed/virtual models constructed from automated segmentations reduces positive resection margins and functional outcomes.
详细描述
This is a parallel group research feasibility study consisting of two intervention arms (3D printed and 3D virtual models) and a control group (standard practice). Intervention groups are prospective; control group is retrospective. Prospective patients, complying with the inclusion criteria, will randomly be allocated to only one intervention group.
Primary outcomes Study the effect of two-intervention arms (3D printed and virtual prostate models) have on the improvement of positive resection margins after RARP, validate the accuracy of automated methods when identifying masks of the prostate gland and, cancer lesions urethra, neurovascular bundles, and external sphincter, and validate the effectiveness of an automated deployment pipeline with the goal of setting groundwork in preparation for a randomise control trial in a subsequent study.
Secondary outcomes Study the effect of two-intervention arms have on functional outcomes, surgeons' and patients' perspectives on using 3D prostate models.
A total of 162 cases will be considered in this feasibility study stratified into 3 cohorts:
- Control group. The control group will consist of 54 retrospective case-matched dataset whereby mp-MRI, positive resection margins, and functional outcomes will be collected and used as a baseline. Automated segmentation of prostate gland and lesions will be done on mp-MRI.
- Intervention arm 1 - 3D printed models. This cohort will consist of 54 prospective cases whereby patient-specific 3D printed models will be available to the surgeon during RARP for manipulation.
- Intervention arm 2 - 3D virtual models. This cohort will consist of 54 prospective cases whereby 3D virtual models will be available to the surgeon during RARP for manipulation using Innersight Labs platform.
