Abstract

Existing imaging devices can be used to plan complex medical and surgical interventions. Recent advances in Robotics provide the opportunity of assisting the physician or the surgeon in performing the intervention. Assisting both planning and performing of interventions first raises problems of matching of various multimodality data. Then the performance of an intervention with a partially autonomous system puts specific problems which are discussed. A general methodology for Computer Assisted Medical Interventions is proposed, which turns out to be a particular case of the classical loop of Perception - Decision - Action. Stereotactic Neurosurgery is a domain in which this methodology is readily applicable. Results are discussed.
