Abstract:
A system comprises a medical instrument, a tracking system configured to monitor a position of the medical instrument, and a processor communicatively coupled to the medical instrument and the tracking system. The processor is configured to generate a plurality of model points of an anatomic structure of a patient, receive a set of measured points of a first portion of the anatomic structure of the patient from the tracking system while the medical instrument is disposed within the anatomic structure of the patient, the set of measured points being associated with a first motion cycle of the medical instrument, map the set of measured points to a first model path of the plurality of model paths, and register the set of measured points with a first portion of the plurality of model points, the first portion associated with the first model path of the plurality of model paths.
