Abstract

A computer-implemented method to determine placement of transducers on a subject's body, the method including: selecting a plurality of intersecting line segment pairs on an image of the subject's body, each of the line segment pairs intersecting in a region of the image corresponding to a tumor in the subject's body, each of the line segment pairs corresponding to locations to place the transducers on the subject's body; determining a pair value for each of the intersecting line segment pairs, each pair value based on a length of each line segment of the corresponding intersecting line segment pair; selecting one or more intersecting line segment pairs based on the pair values to obtain one or more selected intersecting line segment pairs; and outputting the locations to place the transducers on the subject's body corresponding to the one or more selected intersecting line segment pairs.
