Abstract

See full text

A method of generating a representation of an active heating zone on a display in real time during an ablation procedure includes processing imaging data of a surgical site generated by an imaging device, navigating an ablation device in proximity to target tissue, delivering electrosurgical energy to the target tissue via the ablation device to generate an active heating zone, detecting a Doppler shift in the imaging data based on the delivery of electrosurgical energy to the target tissue, and generating a representation of the active heating zone relative to the surgical site based on the detected Doppler shift.
