  • Publication number: 20240423741
    Abstract: A system may comprise a connection member configured to be connected to an anatomic orifice device. The anatomic orifice device may be configured for insertion into a patient. The system may also comprise a mounting bracket coupled to a robot-assisted medical system and a docking guide configured to arrange the connection member in a predetermined configuration. The robot-assisted medical system is configured to transfer the mounting bracket into engagement with the connection member while the connection member is in the predetermined configuration.

  • Patent number: 12114952
    Abstract: A system may comprise a connection member configured to be connected to an anatomic orifice device. The anatomic orifice device may be configured for insertion into a patient. The system may also comprise a mounting bracket coupled to a robot-assisted medical system. The mounting bracket may also include a movable mounting component coupled to a fixed mounting component. The movable mounting component may have a first configuration for mounting to the connection member in a first engagement and a second configuration for mounting to the connection member in a second engagement. The connection member may be spaced apart from the fixed mounting component in the first engagement and may be in direct contact with the fixed mounting component in the second engagement.

  • Publication number: 20240099777
    Abstract: A medical system comprises a display system, an elongate device, an imaging probe configured to extend within the elongate device, and a control system communicatively coupled to the display system. The control system is configured to display a graphical user interface via the display system. The graphical user interface includes a virtual navigation view and a fluoroscopic view. The control system is further configured to: display an image of the elongate device in the virtual navigation view; determine a position of an imaging probe marker in the virtual navigation view based on a position of the imaging probe displayed in the fluoroscopic view; determine a plane of orientation of the imaging probe marker in the virtual navigation view based on an orientation of the imaging probe displayed in the fluoroscopic view; and determine an orientation indicator for the imaging probe marker in the virtual navigation view.

  • Publication number: 20240050154
    Abstract: A medical system comprises a display system, an elongate device, an imaging probe configured to extend within the elongate device, and a control system communicatively coupled to the display system. The control system is configured to display a graphical user interface via the display system. The graphical user interface includes a virtual navigation view. The control system is further configured to receive imaging data from the imaging probe. The control system is further configured to determine a target location based on the imaging data. The control system is further configured to determine a position of a distal end of the elongate device. The control system is further configured to display a graphical marker in the virtual navigation view indicating a direction to steer the elongate device from the position of the distal end of the elongate device to the target location.

  • Publication number: 20230138457
    Abstract: Anatomic simulators, assemblies, and related methods are disclosed. In some embodiments, an anatomic simulator may include constraint panels that define a variably sized volume configured to receive an organ model. An elastic member may be configured to provide a restorative force when the constraint panels are moved to an expanded configuration. Alignment apertures in the constraint panels may be configured to permit marking of an organ model and/or visibility of a mark disposed on the organ model to position and orient the organ model in the anatomic simulator. In some embodiments, an anatomic simulation assembly may include an anatomic simulator, a pressure source, pneumatic controls, a pressure sensor, and a processor. In some embodiments, a method of simulating anatomic motion may include flowing a fluid to an organ model, sensing a pressure, and controlling the flow of fluid based on the sensed pressure to maintain a target pressure.
