Abstract

See full text

A method and system for treating tissue with a surgical device includes the steps of displaying an image created by collecting imaging data from an imaging device, selecting at least one tissue target from the image, determining the effective treatment volume of the surgical device and determining a treatment modality for treating the tissue target with the surgical device, where the treatment modality is made up of at least one target treatment volume. The method may also include the steps of determining the position and orientation of the imaging device, the image and the surgical device, indicating the trajectory of the surgical device with respect to the image on the display screen, inserting the surgical device in the patient based upon the trajectory and treating the tissue target. The method may further include indicating the target treatment volumes on the display screen.
