Systems and methods for planning multiple interventional procedures
A system includes an interventional instrument and a control system. The control system is configured to: generate a graphical user interface (GUI) including an image of a target region for deploying the interventional instrument, wherein the target region includes a plurality of target points and is determined by a probabilistic collection of the plurality of target points, wherein a size of the target region is based at least in part on a location of a target structure within a patient anatomy; responsive to an engagement of the interventional instrument with tissue in the target region, update the GUI to include an engagement location marker; and responsive to the engagement of the interventional instrument, update the GUI to include an image of a revised target region.

responsive to an engagement of the interventional instrument with tissue in the target region, update the GUI to include an engagement location marker; and
responsive to the engagement of the interventional instrument, update the GUI to include an image of a revised target region.
2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the control system is further configured to: determine the target region based on a probabilistic distribution of the target structure for performing an interventional procedure.
3. The system of claim 2 wherein the probabilistic distribution of the target structure is derived from cyclic anatomical motion data.

receive image data from an imaging instrument; and
responsive to receiving the image data, update the GUI to include an image of a second revised target region.
11. A method for performing an interventional procedure, the method comprising:
generating a graphical user interface (GUI) including an image of a target region for deploying an interventional instrument, wherein the target region includes a plurality of target points and is determined by a probabilistic collection of the plurality of target points, wherein a size of the target region is based at least in part on a location of a target structure within a patient anatomy;
responsive to an engagement of the interventional instrument with tissue in the target region, updating the GUI to include an engagement location marker; and
