ABSTRACT:
With a method for supporting an interventional medical operation, a 3-dimensional image data set is recorded before the method. A positioning system is coupled with the coordinates system of the 3-dimensional image data set. The instrument is positioned and the position of the instrument in the 3-dimensional image data set is determined as an instrument image data point. Two further target image data points are determined in the target region, in which the instrument is to be guided. A plane is defined in this way. In this plane, the image data is used for a 2-dimensional display. Both the instrument image data point and also the two target image data points can be identified on the display, so that the target region of an interventional operation and an interventional medical device are displayed on an image at the same time. The image can be tracked during the interventional medical operation.
