  • storing, in a memory, a plurality of identifiers each being associated to a predefined region of interest to be treated by the equipment, each region of interest having position information;

    displaying, on a touch screen device, a graphical user interface having a plurality of selectable elements each corresponding to a respective one of the identifiers;

    receiving a selection of at least one of the identifiers based on an interaction by a user of at least one displayed selectable element; and

    outputting a control signal directed to the equipment, in order to control in real-time the setting of the equipment based on the position information of the region of interest associated to the selected at least one identifier;

    wherein the interaction by the user corresponds to a tapping motion of one of the selectable elements;

    wherein the identifier corresponding to said tapped selectable element is received as the selection of at least one identifier;

    wherein the outputted control signal controls the setting of the equipment to the position information of the region of interest associated to the selected identifier;
