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

17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions, said computer-executable instructions, when executed, cause one or more processors to:
-
determine real-time pose information of a medical device; determine an imaging plane based at least in part on the real-time pose information of the medical device; obtain image data from a set of 3D visualizable medical data based at least in part on the pose information of the medical device, wherein the image data corresponds to medical data from the set of 3D visualizable medical data that intersects with the determined imaging plane; cause one or more displays to display a perspective view of the image data in a virtual 3D space at a first focus setting based at least in part on real-time relative pose information of the medical device with respect to an expected position of a user; and cause the one or more displays to display at one or more second focus settings a perspective view of medical data from the set of 3D visualizable medical data that intersects with at least a portion of one or more imaging planes that are parallel to the determined 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 determined imaging plane. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
