    Abstract: A method of continuously registering a model of anatomic passageways to a patient space includes: collecting a set of measured points along a flexible catheter as the catheter is inserted into the passageways, the measured points based on a shape of the catheter; assigning each measured point to a respective subset of a plurality of subsets based upon a depth of each measured point within the passageways; comparing the plurality of subsets to identify a first optimal subset; registering the model to the patient space based on a set of model points and the first optimal subset; collecting additional measured points; updating the plurality of subsets by assigning each additional measured point to a respective subset; comparing, after the updating, the plurality of subsets to identify a second optimal subset; and registering the model to the patient space based on the set of model points and the second optimal subset.

    Abstract: A system is configured to perform operations includes accessing a set of model points of a model of an anatomic structure of a patient, the model points being associated with a model space. A set of measured points of the anatomic structure of the patient are collected, the measured points being associated with a patient space. The set of model points are registered to the set of measured points using a first set of initial parameters to generate a first transformation. One or more sets of perturbed initial parameters are generated based on the first set of initial parameters. One or more perturbed registration processes are performed to register the set of model points to the set of measured points using the one or more sets of perturbed initial parameters respectively to generate corresponding perturbed transformations. A registration quality indicator is generated based on the first transformation and the one or more perturbed transformations.

    Abstract: A medical system includes a flexible elongate instrument and a control system. The flexible elongate instrument includes a plurality of wires useable to control articulation of the flexible elongate instrument. The control system is configured to monitor movement of the flexible elongate instrument, determine an extent of motion of the flexible elongate instrument based on the monitoring, and determine a mode of operation for the flexible elongate instrument from a plurality of modes of operation based on the monitoring. The plurality of modes of operation includes a retraction mode, an insertion mode, and a parking mode. The control system is further configured to, in response to a change in the mode of operation, alter a rigidity of the flexible elongate instrument with a rate of rigidity change that is based on the extent of motion using one or more of the plurality of wires.

    Abstract: A medical system may comprise a display system, a user input device, a medical instrument, and a manipulator assembly configured to support and operate the medical instrument. The medical system may also comprise a control system. The control system may be configured to display image data corresponding to a three-dimensional anatomical region via the display system, receive a first user input to generate a first curve in the three-dimensional anatomical region via the user input device, and receive a second user input to generate a second curve in the three-dimensional anatomical region via the user input device. The control system may also be configured to determine an anatomical boundary bounded by the first curve and the second curve. The control system may also be configured to control the manipulator assembly to operate medical instrument using the determined anatomical boundary to limit movement of the medical instrument.

    Abstract: A system includes one or more processors configured to read instructions to cause the system to perform operations including accessing a set of model points of a model of an anatomic structure of a patient. The model points is associated with a model space. The operations further include collecting a set of measured points of the anatomic structure of the patient, the measured points being associated with a patient space, determining a set of matches between the set of model points and the set of measured points, determining a first plurality of weights for the set of matches, and registering the set of model points to the set of measured points based on the first plurality of weights to generate a first registration.
