Abstract: Medical systems and methods are provided in which a processor receives the 3D ultrasound images and receives position signals from a position tracking device, indicating the position of a corresponding probe relative to the 3D ultrasound images. Based on the probe position, a region of interest is selected that contains the position the medical probe within the 3D ultrasound images, and the selected region of interest is rendered to a display together with a representation of the medical probe superimposed on the region of interest.

Abstract: A system and method performed in association with medical equipment in a medical procedure are disclosed. The system and method include measuring at least one electrical signal in the medical procedure, rendering a depiction of the medical procedure on a display, representing the measured at least one electrical signal on the display in conjunction with the rendering of the medical procedure, recording the location of at least one piece of medical equipment during the medical procedure, processing the recorded location of at least one piece of medical equipment, depicting the value of signals measured via the at least one piece of medical equipment, and providing an output that correlates the processed recorded location of at least one piece of medical equipment with the depicted signals measured via the at least one piece of medical equipment at the processed recorded location by the at least one piece of medical equipment.

Abstract: A system comprises a display and a processor. The processor is configured to display on the display in a graphical user interface (GUI), while a plurality of electrogram signals are acquired from a heart, a plurality of widgets corresponding to different respective electroanatomical maps generated from the electrogram signals, each of the electroanatomical maps being associated with a respective set of suitability criteria such that any one of the electrogram signals is used to generate the map only if the signal satisfies the set of suitability criteria. The processor is further configured to display in the GUI, in response to a user selecting any one of the widgets, a status of a most recently acquired one of the electrogram signals with respect to at least one criterion in the set of suitability criteria associated with the electroanatomical map to which the selected widget corresponds. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying a catheter inserted in a patient's body is provided. The system may comprise a catheter comprising a handle, a console comprising an input device, a display screen configured to depict an image of the catheter inside the patient's body, and a processor configured to receive a color parameter from the input device. The system may be configured to receive a desired color parameter input from the input device for the catheter, depict the desired color on the image of the catheter on the display screen, and display the desired color on the corresponding catheter within the patient's body. This configuration allows for a more efficient catheter identification process during medical procedures, and prevents catheter identification confusion and thus harm to catheters or the patient for unnecessary movement of other catheters.
