System for providing computer guided ablation of tissue

A system for providing computer guided ablation of tissue of a patient, comprising:

• a. an imaging device for receiving imaging data from a treatment region of a patient, processing said imaging data and providing imaging output data and imaging signals, said imaging output data being available to an operator;
• b. an ablative surgical computer system, comprising:
• i) a guidance module for processing said imaging signals and providing a treatment guidance plan to the operator;
• and,
• ii) a treatment module for acquiring and processing surgical device output data, for optimally controlling treatment parameters and providing feedback information to the operator based on said treatment guidance plan;
• and,
• c. a set of surgical devices, said set of surgical devices providing said surgical device output data, comprising:
• i) at least one ablative device for providing ablation of said treatment region based on said treatment parameters and operator input;
• and,
• ii) at least one temperature sensing device for acquiring temperature data from said treatment region and providing a temperature sensing device output signal, said temperature sensing device output signal being a portion of said surgical device output data,
• wherein said treatment guidance plan is utilized for placing said at least one ablative device and said at least one temperature sensing device into said treatment region.
