  • Live 3D holographic guidance and navigation for performing interventional procedures
    Patent number: 10869727
    Abstract: An interventional procedure can be performed less invasively with live 3D holographic guidance and navigation. Advantageously, the 3D holographic guidance and navigation overcomes the limitations of conventional displays of medical images on standard 2D flat panel screens. The live 3D holographic guidance can utilize a 3D holographic visualization that is derived from complementary imaging modalities (e.g., ultrasound and computed tomography) to provide a complete holographic view of a portion of the patient's body to enable navigation of a tracked interventional instrument/device.
