Description

本発明の第3の具体的局面において、投影される針治療情報は、投影される治療範囲を含む。投影される治療範囲は、治療されるべき標的範囲が有効に治療される可能性があるかどうかを治療している医師が評価することを可能にする、針の位置に基づいて画像表示上に示される境界または容積である。上記で述べたように、通常、投影される針治療情報は、好ましくは、実際の針の位置に基づくが、投影される針の位置に基づくこともできる。故に、治療している医師が、投影される針の位置が治療されるべき標的の組織に関連して操作されている一方で、投影される治療範囲(投影される安全境界に加えて)に依存することが可能である可能性がある。実際の展開後、システムは、治療している医師が、治療が有効となりそうであることと、漿膜および/または他の繊細な組織構造が損傷されないであろうことの両方を確認することを可能にするために、投影される治療範囲と投影される安全境界の両方を再び算出することができる。

Claims (21)

  1. 少なくとも1つの針を組織内に展開する、プローブとシステム制御装置とを含むシステムであって:
    (i)該プローブは、展開可能な針および撮像変換器を有し、
    該針は、該撮像変換器によって生成される映像フィールドの内部へと進入するように構成されており、該針は、該プローブの遠位端の近くで該プローブから外側に展開可能であり、
    該撮像変換器によって生成される映像は、該針の少なくとも一部分および少なくとも1つの解剖学的特徴を示し、該撮像変換器は、該プローブの該遠位端の近くにあり、該撮像変換器は、該プローブが移動させられるにつれて、該撮像変換器の映像フィールドが、該組織の異なる部分上を走査するように構成されており;
    (ii)該システム制御装置は、該撮像変換器によって生成される映像を表示する画面を含み、該システム制御装置は、該映像と、投影される針治療情報とのオーバーレイを該画面上に表示し、
    該投影される針治療情報は、投影される針展開経路と、該針を通して達成される治療の投影される治療境界と、投影される安全境界とを含み、
    該投影される治療境界は、内部に治療部位を規定し、そしてさらに、該投影される治療境界と該投影される安全境界の間の部位を規定し、
