Key Investigators
- BWH: Haiying Liu, Noby Hata, Sota Oguro
- Georgetown University: Ziv Yaniv
Objectives
- build a system for surgical planning and navigation to guide RF liver ablation
Approach, Plan
The workflow reads as follows [after segmentation]:
1. Export the segmentation to the planning program.
2. Run the planning program.
3. Load the plan specified in an xml file into slicer for visualization and modification.
4. User can view the plan, ablations overlayed onto the image slices, ablation locations are from the xml file and the size of the sphere was already available in Slicer before step 1.
5. User can move ablation locations.
6. Export modified plan.
Progress

Delivery Mechanism
The work will be evolved as a Slicer module for surgical planning.
