摘要：
Described herein are methods and systems for defining surgical boundaries. One example method involves receiving data indicating a representation of a patient； receiving data indicating (i) a surgical target region within the representation of the patient； and (ii) a surgical entry portal within the representation of the patient； providing a graphical display of (i) the representation of the patient, and (ii) a surgical pathway from the surgical entry portal to the surgical target region； defining one or more surgical boundaries within the representation； receiving data indicating a position of a surgical instrument with respect to the representation； based on the received data indicating the position of the surgical instrument, determining that the surgical instrument is within a threshold distance from the one or more surgical boundaries； and providing feedback indicating that the surgical instrument is within the predetermined threshold distance from the one or more surgical boundaries.
