The use of any type of medical imaging to plan, carry out, and assess therapeutic interventions and surgical operations is known as image-guided therapy. It is a key idea in 21st century medicine. Shorter hospital stays and fewer repeat procedures can result from the use of image-guided treatment techniques to assist make surgeries less invasive and more precise.
Despite the fact that there are increasingly more specialized procedures that use image guidance, these procedures fall into one of two broad categories: older techniques that use imaging to improve their accuracy and more recent techniques that use imaging and specialized instruments to treat conditions of internal organs and tissues without making an incision. The two most often used cross-sectional digital imaging modalities for Image-Guided Therapy are computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Additionally, surgical navigation technology, tracking tools, and integration software are used to support these procedures.
