Abstract
Systems and methods provide automated systems for accurately estimating infusion coverage within a target brain region in real-time (or approximately real-time) during surgical procedures. Such accurate and real-time infusion coverage estimation enables intraoperative monitoring and adjustment of infusion parameters (e.g., cannula tip location, infusate delivery flow rate, etc.) for achieving optimal/improved infusion coverage for a given drug therapy. Accordingly, examples of the presently disclosed technology can improve the efficacy and safety of drug therapies delivered to the brain.
