A system and method for performing a biopsy of a target volume and a computing device for planning the same are provided. A three-dimensional ultrasound transducer captures ultrasound volume data from the target volume. A three- dimensional registration module registers the ultrasound volume data with supplementary volume data related to the target volume. A biopsy planning module processes the ultrasound volume data and the supplementary volume data in combination in order to develop a biopsy plan for the target volume. A biopsy needle biopsies the target volume in accordance with the biopsy plan.

La présente invention a trait à un système et un procédé pour la réalisation d'une biopsie d'un volume cible et à un dispositif informatique pour sa planification. Un transducteur ultrasonique tridimensionnel capture des données de volume ultrasonores à partir d'un volume cible. Un module d'enregistrement tridimensionnel enregistre les données de volume ultrasonores avec des données de volume supplémentaires associées au volume cible. Un module de planification de biopsie assure le traitement des données de volume ultrasonores et les données de volume supplémentaires en combinaison en vue de développer un plan de biopsie pour le volume cible. Une aiguille de biopsie réalise la biopsie du volume cible selon le plan de biopsie.
