A method for virtual device placement on skin surface in 3D medical image data

摘要

A system, method and computer-readable medium are provided.Some embodiments include image guided software comprising an algorithm for automatically aligning a virtual device model to an image space and calculating the most promising configuration of the device on the skin surface before the actual device is placed on the patient.The device's virtual model and its reachable area are overlapped with the planned image data to visualize and quantify the reachability of the target.Fig.2a
