Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to a method for identifying and localizing body tissue, in which a light beam emitted from a tissue point or tissue region of interest is on the one hand positionally determined with the aid of an optical medical tracking system and is on the other hand analyzed with respect to its light properties, in order to determine from this the nature of the tissue point or tissue region. It also relates to a device for identifying and localizing body tissue, comprising: an optical medical tracking system which detects a light beam emitted from a tissue point or tissue region of interest and positionally determines the location of the tissue point or tissue region; and a light analyzer which analyses the light beam with respect to its light properties, in order to determine from this the nature of the tissue point or tissue region.
