Abstract:
Disclosed are devices, systems, and methods for generating a graphical user interface for use during a microwave ablation procedure, an exemplary method comprising receiving microwave ablation procedure configuration settings, receiving ultrasound image data from the ultrasound sensor, receiving the EM tracking data from the EM tracking system, determining a trajectory of the ablation probe based on the EM tracking data, and generating a graphical user interface showing a position and orientation of the ablation probe and the trajectory in relation to a plane of the ultrasound image data.
