Abstract:
The present invention discloses a neuronavigation-guided focused ultrasound system and a method for the same, which are used to guide focused ultrasound energy to a target point. The system of the present invention comprises a focused ultrasound device, a neuronavigation system and a fixture. According to an image of an interested region of an individual, a focus point of the focused ultrasound device, and tracking points provided by the neuronavigation system, the neuronavigation system performs a calibration process and establishes a positional relationship between the focus point and the image of the interested region. Thereby, the neuronavigation system can recognize the focus point and guide focused ultrasound to the target point.
