Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING A COMPUTERIZED SIMULATION OF A MEDICAL PROCEDURE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/117855
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method of performing computerized simulations of image-guided procedures. The method may comprise receiving medical image data of a specific patient. A patient-specific digital image-based model of an anatomical structure of the specific patient may be generated based on the medical image data. A computerized simulation of an image-guided procedure may be performed using the digital image-based model. Medical image data, the image-based model and a simulated medical tool model may be simultaneously displayed.
