<p>A method for generating quasi real-time feedback for the purpose of guiding surgical, terapeuthical or diagnostical procedures by means of ultrasound imaging is described. The location of a surgical tool, a terapeutic radiation field or a diagnostic energy field is related to the coordinate system of an intraoperative 2D and/or 3D ultrasound imaging system (and optionaly pre-operative MR/CT/X-ray data), thus allowing synchronized relations between data acquisition, tool movement and image visualizations.</p> |
