SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NEEDLE DEPLOYMENT DETECTION IN IMAGE-GUIDED BIOPSY

摘要

A system and method for medical device detection includes a guidance system (38) configured to deliver a surgical device (32) into a subject. A surgical device deployment detector (25, 40, 42, 44) is configured to cooperate with the guidance system and is configured to detect a deployment of the surgical device in the subject. A coordination module (22)is configured to receive input from the guidance system and the deployment detector to determine and record one or more of a location and time of each deployment.
