Abstract
A lung tumor ablation planning system includes a processor operable to compute a target ablation zone and a set of optimum ablation parameters to create the target lesion with the ablation catheter. A predictive algorithm is employed to model the ablation zone based on training data. Various ablation plans are displayed to the physician corresponding to various metrics including without limitation maximizing tumor ablation coverage, shortest travel, obstacle avoidance, and shortest ablation time. Related methods are described.
