System and methods for percutaneous treatment planning and treatment monitoring

A system for surgical procedure assistance, comprising:

• a processor configured to:
• receive a first image of a patient captured prior to a surgical procedure and generate a treatment plan based on the first image, wherein the treatment plan includes information related to one or more surgical instruments,
• receive a second image of the patient captured upon the surgical procedure being initiated, and dynamically adjust the treatment plan by registering the first image with the second image,
• receive a third image of the patient captured after at least one of the one or more surgical instruments is placed into a lesion and before a treatment is initiated,
• identify at least a pose of the one or more surgical instruments in the third image,
• adjust the treatment plan by aligning a path associated with the one or more surgical instruments and a treatment zone based on the identified pose,
• estimate a size of the treatment zone before treatment is activated,
• acquire a fourth image upon the treatment being performed,
• segment an actual treatment zone from the fourth image,
• compute, an overlap ratio based on the actual treatment zone and the lesion,
• calculate, in response to the overlap ratio between the actual treatment zone and the lesion satisfying a first condition, a first distance between a surface of the actual treatment zone and a surface of the lesion,
• calculate, in response to the overlap ratio between the actual treatment zone and the lesion satisfying a second condition, a second distance between the surface of the actual treatment zone and the surface of the lesion,
• determine, based on one of the first distance and the second distance, whether a further treatment to the lesion is required, and
• dynamically generate an updated treatment plan based on the further treatment to the lesion being determined.

A non-transitory machine readable medium having information recorded thereon for surgical procedure assistance, wherein the information, when read by a machine, causes the machine to perform the steps of:

• receiving a first image of a patient captured prior to a surgical procedure;
• generating a treatment plan based on the first image, wherein the treatment plan includes information related to one or more surgical instruments;
• receiving a second image of the patient captured upon the surgical procedure being initiated;
• dynamically adjusting the treatment plan by registering the first image with the second image;
• receiving a third image of the patient captured after at least one of the one or more surgical instruments is placed into a lesion and before a treatment is initiated;
• identifying at least a pose of the one or more surgical instruments in the third image;
• adjusting the treatment plan by aligning a path associated with the one or more surgical instruments and a treatment zone based on the identified pose;
• estimating a size of the treatment zone before treatment is activated;
• acquiring a fourth image upon the treatment being performed;
• segmenting an actual treatment zone from the fourth image;
• computing, an overlap ratio based on the actual treatment zone and the lesion;
• calculating, in response to the overlap ratio between the actual treatment zone and the lesion satisfying a first condition, a first distance between a surface of the actual treatment zone and a surface of the lesion;
• calculating, in response to the overlap ratio between the actual treatment zone and the lesion satisfying a second condition, a second distance between the surface of the actual treatment zone and the surface of the lesion;
• determining, based on one of the first distance and the second distance, whether a further treatment to the lesion is required;
• and
• dynamically generating an updated treatment plan based on the further treatment to the lesion being determined.
