Software is a core component of any system intended to support image-guided surgery interventions. This chapter describes some of the important considerations that should be kept in mind when designing, implementing, and using software as a component of an image-guided surgery system. Particular emphasis is given to quality control and the principles of software design for safety-critical applications.
