Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for planning a medical intervention involving an intracavity probe and an imaging dataset of a patient. A view-type is selected from a defined set of view-types. A virtual field of view of the intracavity probe corresponding to the selected view-type is determined. A virtual intracavity image is rendered for display. The virtual intracavity image is based upon the imaging dataset and the virtual field of view. The virtual field of view can be based upon segmentation of an intracavity probe path, at least one anatomical structure, or possibly user input. In embodiments, the virtual field of view can be based upon probe parameters computed in accordance with a pre-defined set of rules for the selected view-type. The probe parameters can be computed by evaluation of a cost function expressed by the pre-defined set of rules for the selected view-type. Other aspects are described and claimed.
