Patent number: 12008760Abstract: Systems and methods of estimating movement of anatomical structures of a new patient include learning one or more deformation models from preoperative and intraoperative imaging data of a set of other patients and estimating movement of anatomical structures of the new patient based on the one or more deformation models and preoperative imaging data of the new patient. Estimating movement of the anatomical structures may include applying deformation models to map data derived from preoperative imaging data of a new patient to obtain deformed map data for each deformation model, and determining the deformation model that best fits the intraoperative imaging data of the new patient. Applying a deformation model to map data may include applying a transformation to the deformation model and interpolating to obtain a deformed map data. Registration is computed between locations of a medical device sampled during navigation of the medical device through the new patient and the original and deformed map data.Type: GrantFiled: July 12, 2021Date of Patent: June 11, 2024Assignee: Covidien LPInventors: Nicolas J. Merlet, Oren P. Weingarten, Ariel Birenbaum, Alexander Nepomniashchy, Evgeni Kopel, Guy Alexandroni
