A method for locating and visualizing a target (C) in relation to a focal point (F2), in a mammal, particularly a human body, including the steps of forming an ultrasound probe mobile in space, mechanically independent of a treatment system and located by a remote locating system, ensuring simultaneous recording firstly of an ultrasound image in which the image of the target appears, and secondly of the position of the ultrasound probe, in the recorded ultrasound image, selecting the position of the image of the target to determine the virtual position of the target (C), simultaneously determining firstly the position of the focal point (F2) by the remote locating system, and secondly the position of the members displacing the target and/or treatment system, and calculating the displacement values for the displacing members, to cause the virtual position of the target (C) to coincide with the focal point (F2).
