摘要
Embodiments described herein provide various examples of predicting potential current paths from an active electrode of a monopolar electrosurgery tool to a return electrode of the monopolar electrosurgery tool based on analyzing electrical properties of tissues inside a patient's body, and evaluating and eliminating tissue burn risks associated with the predicted current paths. In some embodiments, a current-path-prediction technique is used to predict a set of potential current paths from the active electrode to the return electrode for any given geometrical configuration of the two electrodes on the patient's body. These predicted current paths can then be pictorially displayed on a 3D scan of the patient's body or an endoscopic view of the patient's body and in relation to the display of any existing metal implant inside the patient's body, which allows for visualizing points of tissue burn risks inside the patient's body.
