Zusammenfassung:According to a computer-implemented method for planning therapeutic ultrasound treatment of a three-dimensional tissue region, a tissue model containing a material parameter relating to deformability and/or elasticity of a corresponding material of the tissue region is provided in spatially resolved and/or directionally resolved form. Based on the tissue model, part of the tissue region is determined as a treatment region, and, depending on the tissue model and the treatment region, a therapeutic plan is generated to change the at least one material parameter. The therapeutic plan includes at least one characterization parameter that characterizes a plurality of lesions with respect to spatial arrangement and/or pose and/or shape and/or at least one configuration parameter of the plurality of lesions for a therapeutic ultrasound apparatus for generating the plurality of lesions.
