  • Publication number: 20120057671
    Abstract: A system and method for monitoring a guided intervention device includes determining (306) a position of an intervention device inside a subject using a radiation source to image the intervention device. A circular acquisition is performed (304) to update the position of the intervention device wherein the acquisition includes skipping view angles by turning off a radiation source at given angular positions. A model of the intervention device is generated (308) to provide a virtual image of the intervention device against a background of the subject. Movement of the intervention device is modeled (310) during the skipped view angles to provide substantially real-time tracking of the intervention device.
