A targeting device defines a direction of approach to a subsurface target under guidance of imaging equipment (10) such as a computer tomograph or a magnetic resonance imaging machine. The targeting device is positioned relative to the target in such a way that the optimal direction of approach avoiding vital internal structures can be selected by reference to the images displayed on the imaging equipment (10). The device projects a visible light beam (40), such as a laser beam, on a region of a patient, indicating the point of entry and the angle of approach to the subsurface target.

L'invention concerne un dispositif de ciblage permettant de définir une direction d'approche d'une cible de sous-surface, par guidage à l'aide d'un équipement d'imagerie tel qu'un tomographe informatique ou une machine d'imagerie par résonance magnétique. Le dispositif de ciblage est positionné par rapport à la cible, de sorte que la direction optimale de l'approche qui évite les structures internes vitales, peut être sélectionnée par référence aux images affichées sur l'équipement d'imagerie. Le dispositif projette un faisceau de lumière visible, tel qu'un faisceau laser, sur une région du patient, indiquant l'entrée et l'angle d'approche de la cible de sous-surface.
