17.5.1.8 Display ofP andU Points
P and U points are portals extending from the primary hepatic duct to the secondary hepatic duct. The three-dimensional
reconstruction of the relationship between tumor boundary and location of P and U points, as well as the three­dimensional reconstruction of the spatial relationship between the lesion and hepatic artery and portal vein, are important bases for planning of the resection range and for­mulation of the surgical plan (Fig.17.28). The reconstruction of P and U points fully reects the advantages of three­dimensional visualization.

17.5.2 Preoperative Evaluation ofPerihepatic Hilar Diseases Based on3D Visualization Technology
17.5.2.1 Preoperative Evaluation ofPerihepatic
Hilar Tumor Based on3D Visualization Technology
Preoperative assessment of perihepatic hilar tumors is basi­cally similar. We shall take hilar cholangiocarcinoma as an example, which is elucidated as follows. The preoperative evaluation of hilar cholangiocarcinoma focuses on the evalu­ation of tumor resectability (whether the tumor can achieve radical resection). The evaluation includes four dimensions: the extent of tumor extending along the bile duct; the inva­sion of adjacent hepatic artery, portal vein, and liver paren­chyma; lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis (Xiang and Dong 2009; Ni etal. 2015). Three-dimensional visual­ization is of great value in evaluating the extent of tumor involving bile duct, tumor invasion of hilar vessels, and residual liver volume after hepatectomy, but there is no obvi­ous advantage in the evaluation of lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis (Ni etal. 2016).
Evaluating theExtent ofTumor Involvement inBile Ducts by 3D Visualization
The Bismuth-Corlette classication (Bismuth and Corlette
1975) is currently the most widely used hilar bile duct clas-
sication, which can be divided into four types (Figs.17.29 and 17.30). Type I: The tumor is located in the common hepatic duct and does not violate the conuence. Type II: The tumor invades the right and left hepatic duct conuence but does invade the left and right hepatic ducts; Type III: The tumor invades the right hepatic duct (type IIIa) or left hepatic duct (type IIIb); Type IV: The tumor simultaneously invades the left and right bile ducts.
Three-dimensional visualization technology can not only visualize the size of tumors and extent of bile duct involve­ment, but also evaluate whether the tumor boundary exceeds P and U points (the separation limits of the bile duct) (Fig. 17.31). Sakamoto et al. (1998) showed that the safe length of the negative margin is more than 5mm from the tumor margin. Three-dimensional visualization technology can be used to measure the safe length of bile duct through simulated surgery.
Bismuth-Corlette classication is based on the extent of bile duct involvement by tumors, which is of great value for the selection of surgical approach. However, it does not assess the factors such as vascular invasion, lymph node metastasis, and liver atrophy that have an impact on the resection and prognosis of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. A new staging system for hilar cholangiocarcinoma was proposed by the International Cholangiocarcinoma Association in 2011, which comprehensively evaluates and expresses the pathological elements such as the location and shape of chol­angiocarcinoma tumors, the involvement of portal vein and hepatic artery, reserved liver volume, liver parenchymal lesions, lymph nodes, and distant metastasis. Three­dimensional visualization technology is more suitable for the application of this classication.
Evaluating theTumor Invasion ofHilar Vessels by 3D Visualization Technology
The criteria for judging vascular involvement are as follows: the vessel is surrounded by tumor, resulting in obstruction, narrowing or contour distortion of the lumen. The angle of tumor contact with blood vessel is more than 180° (Lu etal.
1997; Park et al. 2008). Three-dimensional visualization
technology can visualize whether the tumor wraps around the blood vessels and whether the blood vessels become thinner under pressure; which can intuitively and accurately

3D Visualization Classication ofHilar Cholangiocarcinoma
The Expert Consensus on Accurate Diagnosis and Treatment of Hilar Cholangiocarcinoma with Three-Dimensional Visualization (2007 edition) (Lau etal. 2017a, b) proposed the clinical classication of hilar cholangiocarcinoma with 3D visualization, which has important guiding value for accurate diagnosis and treatment. The classication divides
hilar cholangiocarcinoma into ve types: Type I: tumors invade the common hepatic duct, not the conuence of left and right hepatic ducts, no invasion of hepatic artery and por­tal vein, no atrophy of hepatic region or segment; Type II: tumors invade the conuence of left and right hepatic ducts, with or without invasion of hepatic artery and portal vein, and with or without atrophy of hepatic region or segment. Type III a: tumors invade the conuence of left and right hepatic ducts, mainly the right hepatic duct, accompanied by right hepatic artery or right portal vein branch invasion, with or without atrophy of right hepatic area or segment; Type III b: tumors invade the conuence of left and right hepatic ducts, mainly the left hepatic duct, accompanied by left hepatic artery or left portal vein branch invasion, with or without left hepatic duct atrophy; type IV a: tumors invade the conuence of left and right hepatic ducts, the right sec­ondary bile ducts, the right hepatic artery or the right branch of portal vein, but not beyond the scope of point P, the right hepatic region or segment atrophy; type IV b: tumors invade the conuence of left and right hepatic ducts, the left second­ary bile duct, the left hepatic artery or the left branch of por­tal vein, but not beyond the scope of point U, with or without atrophy of the entire liver.

In 2017, “The Expert Consensus on Accurate Diagnosis and Treatment of Complicated Liver Tumors with Three­Dimensional Visualization,” proposed the clinical classica­tion of centrally located hepatocellular carcinoma with 3D visualization based on the location of the carcinoma, the relationship between the tumor and intrahepatic vessels, and the hepatic segment to be resected; which has important guiding value for accurate diagnosis and treatment of cen­trally located hepatocellular carcinoma (Lau etal. 2017a, b; Tao 2016).

In case of sufcient residual liver volume, right trisectionec­tomy or left trisectionectomy can be performed; while if the volume of the residual liver is not enough, and the portal vein and hepatic vein meet the requirements, it is feasible to perform reduced right trisectionectomy or reduced left trisectionectomy.

Preoperative evaluation of the hepatolithiasis mainly includes the size of stones and their distribution in various bile ducts, the extent and scope of the bile duct stenosis and dilatation, liver atrophy and hypertrophy, and the function of the Oddi sphincter. Three-dimensional visualization is of great value in evaluating the distribution of hepatolithiasis, the location of biliary stenosis and dilatation, and the resid­ual liver volume after hepatectomy (Fang etal. 2010, 2013,
2015).
Based on the Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Hepatolithiasis, the “Expert Consensus on Accurate Diagnosis and Treatment of Hepatolithiasis with Three­dimensional Visualization” (2017 version) (Fang etal. 2015) further standardized the establishment of the three­dimensional visualization model of hepatolithiasis; provid­ing a new strategy for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of hepatolithiasis.
In the preoperative evaluation of high biliary stricture and central bile duct cystic dilatation; 3D visualization technol­ogy can also visualize the location and scope of the lesion and the relationship between the lesion and blood vessels; providing basis for the formulation of surgical planning.
17.5.2.3 Liver Segmentation andResidual Liver
Volume Evaluation Based on3D Visualization Technology
The Couinaud classication is currently the most widely used method for liver segmentation, which applies three hepatic venous ssures and hepatic transverse ssures as anatomical
markers. The hepatic vein ows through the adjacent hepatic segments and drains blood from each segment, while the por­tal vein walks through the segments of the liver according to its branches, supplying each segment with blood. Each hepatic segment is an independent anatomical functional unit. Couinaud divides the liver into the left and right half, four sectors, and eight segments according to the course of the hepatic vein and portal vein. The liver is divided into left and right liver by the plane where the middle hepatic vein is located. The left and right halves of the liver are divided into four sectors, respectively, by the plane where the left hepatic vein and right hepatic vein are located and the inferior vena cava are located, namely: the left paramedian sector, left lat­eral sector, right paramedian sector, and right lateral sector (Fig. 17.34). The left and right branches of the portal vein serve as transverse boundaries, dividing the four sectors into eight segments. However, the Couinaud classication also has certain limitations. It is applicable to the liver segmenta­tion of a normal portal vein. If there is variation in the portal vein, the segment plane needs to be adjusted according to the distribution and course of portal vein branches.
The segmentation of hepatic segments or sectors and the measurement of each hepatic volume were performed by 3D visualization technology, mainly based on the course of the hepatic vein and portal vein (Fig.17.35).
Before hepatectomy, partial hepatectomy can be per­formed by simulated surgery, and residual liver volume can be measured to evaluate surgical safety (Wigmore et al.
2001; Rau etal. 2000).

By means of 3D visualization technology, the liver con­tour, the range of lesion, portal vein, hepatic vein, hepatic artery, and bile duct, can be displayed and arbitrarily com­bined, rotated, zoomed in, and zoomed out. It can also visu­alize the conuence, course, and variation of these vessels. The spatial location of a tumor can be displayed, achieving all-round observation of hepatic segment involving the tumor; and the relationship of the tumor with its adjacent vessels, measurement of incision length, calculation of resid­ual liver volume, simulation of surgical approach, and pre­diction of the important vascular structures that may be encountered during the operation. Thus, per-hepatic portal surgery can be better visualized, quantiable, and controllable.
17.5.3.2 Intraoperative Navigation
ofPerihepatic Hilar Diseases Based on3D Visualization Technology
Computer-aided surgery (CAS) has realized real-time 3D positioning during the surgical procedure by using 3D visu­alization. Through registration of preoperative and intraop­erative medical images, as well as registration of intraoperative medical images with patients and surgical instruments; the dynamic three-dimensional space between surgical instruments and pathological tissues and normal anatomical structures, and whether the surgical procedure and results are consistent with the preoperative simulation, can be accurately judged. Thereby achieving real-time intra­operative navigation and more precise and minimally inva­sive surgery; opening up a new eld for the development of surgical technology. Currently, an obstacle to the application of 3D navigation surgery in perihepatic hilar disease surgery is the plasticity of viscera. During laparotomy, the shape of liver and biliary tract is easily distorted, so the registration fails. With the improvement of technology, it is believed that in the near future, intraoperative navigation surgery will also be applied to the operation of perihepatic hilar diseases, especially in laparoscopic and robotic surgery.

17.5.3.1 Surgical Planning andSimulation
ofPerihepatic Disease Based on3D Visualization Technology
Preoperative evaluation of peri-hepatic disease based on con­ventional imaging examination has high requirements for the surgeon’s anatomical knowledge and spatial perception, with subjective and uncertain factors. It cannot sufciently assess the complex vascular structure of the perihilar area, the inl­tration range of lesions, or the residual liver volume after hepatectomy, before operating. Many important decisions need to be made during the operation.

17.6 3D Visualization Imaging

17.6.1 Third-Party Software for3D Visualization Processing
The processing software for CT cannot satisfy the needs of three-dimensional reconstruction of clinical images, so some researchers have successively designed independent soft­ware for preoperative imaging evaluation and surgical plan­ning of the hepatobiliary system. In some cases, intraoperative navigation can also be achieved.
Materialize Mimics is the relatively famous three-
dimensional visualization software in the early stage created
17 Application of3D Visualization Technology inPerihilar Surgery
447
by Materialize Medical. However, at this time, Mimics lacks a module for designing the part of a liver and the three­dimensional processing requires this to be rendered manu­ally, which is time consuming, laborious, and ineffective. The HepaVision system (Mevis, Germany) has a high quality of image reconstruction. Domestic users can apply for their services through their websites. They only need to transmit the source data in DICOM format to Mevis Research Group through the network. The other party will analyze the data and feedback the results of three-dimensional visualization processing to users. However, the service fee is expensive. In addition, users lack the autonomy of image data reconstruc­tion and analysis.
At present, the IQQA-LIVER system developed by EDDA Company in the United States and the Myrian-XP system developed by Intrasense Company in France is widely used in China.
The team led by Professor Chihua Fang of Southern Medical University has also developed an MI-3DVS system with independent intellectual property rights (Zhu et al.
2008; Fang et al. 2004). In the MI-3DVS system, source
images in DICOM format are used for processing and the region of interest (ROI) is identied and marked through a combination of automatic and manual methods. Automatic segmentation technology can signicantly reduce the work­load of manual segmentation. The biggest advantages com­pared with CT/MRI processing software, are strong manual segmentation and modeling functions. Each region of inter­est can generate a model (mask), and multiple masks can be combined to express three-dimensional information. Similar to other three-dimensional visualization software, hepatic artery, portal vein, bile duct, hepatic vein, and lesion, can be displayed in the same image and arbitrarily combined as needed. It can also measure the size of lesion and assess the extent of lesion involvement, and use cutting plain image processing to perform virtual surgery and observe the opera­tive effect. The liver volume of each segment and the residual
liver volume of simulated surgery can be measured, provid­ing an intuitive basis for preoperative evaluation and the for­mulation of surgical planning.
We present the IQQA-LIVER developed by EDDA com­pany as an example to describe the key points of three­dimensional visualization processing technology.
17.6.2 Technique of3D Visualization
Processing
17.6.2.1 Acquisition ofThin-Slice Enhanced CT
Data
3D visualization processing is based on enhanced CT of the upper abdomen. Therefore, preoperative enhanced CT of the upper abdomen is required for each patient to collect the data from the: plain scan, arterial phase, venous phase, and equilibrium phase. Scanning can be performed with 64, 128, 256, or 320 slice helical CT scanners. During routine plain scan, patients were scanned in the supine position, with a scan range from the top of the diaphragm to the lower edge of the liver. Scanning conditions were 120kV, 250mA.A combination of 0.625mm×64-row detector is adopted, with a layer thickness of 1.25mm, an interval of
1.25mm, a pitch of 0.984, and a rotation time of 0.5s for the ball tube for 1cycle. Thinner layers are better for recon­struction. The delay time of arterial phase was 20~ 25 s, and that of venous phase was 50~ 55 s. After scanning, enhanced CT data can be saved in DICOM format for 3D reconstruction.
17.6.2.2 Import ofImage Data
When the DICOM format CT image data is imported into the workstation IQQA-LIVER system (EDDA Technology Inc., Princeton, NJ, USA), the workstation will automatically generate a list of cases. And select the cases in the list (Fig.17.36).
