Zusammenfassung:	PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a system and method for image-guided procedure applicable to various image-guided procedures among procedures with less invasion. SOLUTION: A software-integrated disposal kit (20) contains a series of sterile packages which hold instrumented tools (26, 28, 30), accessories (42, 44, 46) which are implanted or used during a procedure, peripherals (40) e.g., mouse, keyboard, etc., for a user input control (34) for controlling a computer (10), markers (32) which are tracked by a tracking system (16), all in sterile condition, and a one-time use digital medium (50). When an image-guided procedure is to be performed, the digital medium is inserted into the computer (10) and the user interface is displayed. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT
