Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for image management in image-guided medical procedures
First Claim
1. A method for image management in image-guided medical procedures, comprising:
- determining, with one or more computing devices, pose information for a set of 3D visualizable medical data;
determining, with the one or more computing devices, real-time pose information for a medical device;
selecting an imaging plane from the set of 3D visualizable medical data based at least on the real-time pose information for the medical device and the pose information for the set of 3D visualizable medical data;
determining a perspective view of the selected imaging plane in a virtual 3D space based at least on real-time relative pose information of the medical device with respect to a position of a user;
determining a selected portion of the set of 3D visualizable medical data, wherein the selected portion of the set of 3D visualizable medical data corresponds to the set of 3D visualizable medical data in the selected imaging plane;
displaying at a first focus setting, on the one or more displays, a perspective view of the selected portion of the set of 3D visualizable medical data in the virtual 3D space based at least on the determined perspective view of the selected imaging plane; and
displaying at one or more second focus settings, on the one or more displays, a perspective view of the set of 3D visualizable medical data that is in at least a portion of one or more imaging planes that are parallel to the selected imaging plane, wherein the one or more second focus settings vary in proportion to a distance between the one or more imaging planes and the selecting imaging plane.

Abstract
Presented herein are methods, systems, devices, and computer-readable media for image management in image-guided medical procedures. Some embodiments herein allow a physician to use multiple instruments for a surgery and simultaneously provide image-guidance data for those instruments. Various embodiments disclosed herein provide information to physicians about procedures they are performing, the devices (such as ablation needles, ultrasound transducers or probes, scalpels, cauterizers, etc.) they are using during the procedure, the relative emplacements or poses of these devices, prediction information for those devices, and other information. Some embodiments provide useful information about 3D data sets and allow the operator to control the presentation of regions of interest. Additionally, some embodiments provide for quick calibration of surgical instruments or attachments for surgical instruments.
