Claim 11:
12. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
retrieve a reference image of a region of a subject, said reference image having at least one target area and markers at a plurality of prior intervention locations;
retrieve a series of real-time guidance images of the region of the subject, the series of real-time guidance images being acquired from a different imaging modality than the reference image;
register the at least one target area and the markers from the reference image to a coordinate space for the series of real-time guidance images and generating a series of real-time mapped guidance images, wherein the series of real-time mapped guidance images each include the markers;
perform a first interventional procedure and recording each intervention location where the procedure was executed in the spaced real-time mapped guidance images;
register the intervention locations from the series of real-time mapped guidance images to the reference image in a coordinate space for the reference image;
retrieve information indicative of at least one of a level of suspicion of cancer and histopathological findings of biopsy cores obtained at corresponding intervention locations;
generate a planning image based on the reference image and the retrieved information; and
generate a visual display of the planning image with the markers visually encoded to indicate at least one of the level of suspicion of cancer and the histopathological findings at the corresponding intervention locations.
