Abstract
Most surgical interventions rely on a planning step. For example, in orthopedic surgery, angles or cutting planes must be defined before the intervention. This step requires image data. Given the image data, we could plan the intervention with paper and pencil. However, it seems reasonable to combine planning with navigation, since we must retrieve the geometric results of the planning steps during the intervention.
