Minimally invasive treatments offer many advantages for patients compared to traditional open surgeries. They are safer, cause less damage to the body, and allow patients to recover more quickly. This thesis explores how new technologies can make these treatments even safer, more accurate, and more efficient, with a focus on procedures that use CT scans for image guidance. The results show that new technologies have a lot of potential, but they need to be thoroughly tested and further developed before they can be adopted. It is essential that these innovations not only work well technically, but are also practically applicable and provide added value in healthcare. Additionally, it is essential to carefully consider both the benefits and the drawbacks of using new technology. Only then can technology truly help improve the safety and quality of patient care.
