Patent EP-2225887-A2 (EP)
Inventor: YE YAN
IPC: H04N19/593
Filed: 2008-10-10
Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques for adaptively coding video block header information based on previously encoded video blocks. A video encoder may adaptively select a coding table for use in encoding a syntax element of a current video block based on corresponding syntax elements of one or more previously encoded blocks. In one aspect, the video encoder may adaptively select the coding table for use in encoding a block type of the current block based on block types of one or more video blocks adjacent to the current video block, i.e., neighboring video blocks. The video encoder may also predict one or more other header syntax elements of the current block based on at least one of the previously encoded video blocks. If prediction is successful, the video encoder may encode a flag to indicate the success of prediction.

Subsequently, at an intraoperative stage, a plurality of second ultrasound images may be sequentially formed in real time. Similarities may be measured between the first ultrasound images and the second ultrasound images, and the ultrasound-CT registered images, each corresponding to each of the first ultrasound images having highest similarity to the second ultrasound image may be retrieved.
