摘要
A calibration/surgical tool (90 160) includes an electromagnetic sensor array (30) of two or more electromagnetic sensors in a known geometrical configuration. Electromagnetic tracking errors are characterized by a mapping of pre-operative absolute and relative errors based on a movement of a calibrated calibration/surgical tool (90 160) through a pre¬ operative electromagnetic field. Using statistical mapping a desired absolute error field (46) is measured either in the clinic as the part of daily quality control checks or before the patient comes in or in vivo. A resulting error field (46) may be displayed to the physician to provide clear visual feedback about measurement confidence or reliability of localization estimates of the absolute errors in electromagnetic tracking.
