TROCAR PORT POSITIONING SIMULATION METHOD AND DEVICE THEREFOR

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To achieve determination of a trocar port in simulation under endoscope.

SOLUTION: A segmentation part constituted by a computer extracts an organ from imaged data imaged at prescribed intervals in a living body. The imaged data of the organ imaged at prescribed intervals are laminated to configure three-dimensional volume data. An image generation means reads out the three-dimensional volume data to form an image so as to view the living body from a virtual view point to display the image on a monitor screen. A prescribed number of trocar port positions are designated on the displayed living body surface.
