1. A method for a minimally invasive teleoperated surgical system, the method comprising: displaying one or more captured camera images of a surgical site on at least one display device at a first surgeon console, the one or more captured camera images including an image of a first tool; overlaying a first menu system, a pointer, and a first interactive graphical tool icon onto the one or more captured camera images of the surgical site, the first interactive graphical tool icon associated with the image of the first tool in the one or more captured camera images of the surgical site; if the pointer is moved to be over a first menu button in the first menu system in response to movement of at least one input device and the first menu button is selected by the at least one input device, overlaying a first pull down menu list of a plurality of menu options each associated with a medical image data set for selection; if the pointer is moved to be over a second menu button in the first menu system in response to movement of at least one input device and the second menu button is selected by the at least one input device, overlaying a second menu system onto the one or more captured camera images, associated with defining and adjusting virtual fixtures to guide the movement of the first tool; if the pointer is moved to be over the first interactive graphical tool icon in response to movement of at least one input device and the first interactive graphical tool icon is selected by the at least one input device, overlaying a second pull down menu list of a plurality of menu options each associated with the first tool; controlling the first tool using the at least one input device to perform a teleoperated surgical procedure; and implementing virtual fixtures to guide the movement of the first tool if virtual fixtures are selected from the second menu system.
