摘要： Systems and methods are provided for remotely navigating an elongate medical device in an operating region in a subject's body at a local procedure site, under the control of a user at a remote site. A navigation system having a controller responsive to signals from a local computer is provided. An imaging system displays an image of the operating region on a local display, and a physiology monitoring system displays information about the subject. The system utilizes a local computer for providing instructions from a local user to the navigation system controller, and a remote computer for providing instructions from a remote user to the navigation system controller. A display is provided at the remote site, and a video linking system provides a combined video display at the remote site. The system further includes an audio linking system and a data linking system for providing data communication between the remote and local sites.
