  • Publication number: 20250072969
    Abstract: A system comprises a processor, a display, and a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to receive intra-operative three-dimensional image data from an imaging system. A portion of the intra-operative three-dimensional image data corresponds to an instrument disposed in a patient anatomy. The computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the system to generate two-dimensional projection image data from the intra-operative three-dimensional image data, display the two-dimensional projection image data on the display, and identify, within the two-dimensional projection image data, a three-dimensional location of a portion of the instrument.

  • Publication number: 20240324870
    Abstract: Medical instrument guidance systems and associated devices and methods are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a method for providing guidance for percutaneous access to a target within an anatomic structure, includes receiving point cloud data from a sensor system coupled to an internal instrument as the internal instrument is moved within the anatomic structure; generating a 3D model of the anatomic structure based at least in part on the point cloud data; and receiving information for identifying a substructure within the 3D anatomic model. The substructure can provide access to the target. The method can further include determining an entry to the substructure; determining an approach path through the entry; and providing a graphical representation of the approach path.

  • 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.
