Abstract :
The major goal of the paper is to present attributes of selected combined methods of imaging techniques used to aid diagnostics and minimally invasive surgical manipulations. Advantages and limitations of these methods are discussed here on the basis of several examples of real interventions. Different imaging techniques were used, including video endoscopy, X-ray, and ultrasound imaging to improve efficiency of complex diagnostic and therapeutic procedures.
