    Abstract: Techniques for aligning a medical instrument for percutaneous access to a location within the human anatomy can include determining an orientation of the medical instrument, determining a target location within the human anatomy, and determining a target trajectory for percutaneous access of the target location. Further, the techniques can include causing display of an interface that includes an instrument-alignment element indicative of an alignment of the orientation of the medical instrument to the target trajectory.

    Abstract: Certain aspects relate to systems with robotically controllable field generators and applications thereof. For example, a robotic medical system may include a first robotic arm that is configured to couple to an electromagnetic (EM) field generator. The first robotic arm be capable of moving the EM field generator. The robotic medical system may also include one or more processors. The processors may determine an EM position of an EM sensor within the EM field in an EM coordinate frame associated with the EM field generator. The processors also determine a position of the EM field generator in a robotic coordinate frame associated with the first robotic arm. The processors determine a registration between the EM coordinate frame and the robotic coordinate frame based on the position of the EM field generator. Based on the registration, the processors may determine a position of the EM sensor in the robotic coordinate frame.

    Abstract: Anatomical feature tracking involves advancing a medical instrument to a treatment site of a patient, the medical instrument comprising an imaging device, generating a first image of at least a portion of the treatment site using the imaging device of the medical instrument when a distal end of the medical instrument is in a first position, generating a first silhouette of a first target anatomical feature represented in the first image, generating a second image of at least a portion of the treatment site using the imaging device of the medical instrument when the distal end of the medical instrument is in a second position, generating a second silhouette of a second target anatomical feature represented in the second image, and determining a target position at the treatment site based at least in part on the first silhouette and the second silhouette.

    Abstract: Certain aspects relate to systems with robotically controllable field generators and applications thereof. A robotic medical system may include a robotic arm coupled to an electromagnetic (EM) field generator configured to generate an EM field, and the first robotic arm may be configured to move the EM field generator. The medical system may also include a medical instrument configured for insertion into a patient. The medical instrument may comprise an EM sensor and one or more processors. The processors may: determine a position of the EM sensor within the EM field; and adjust a position of the EM field generator by commanding movement of the first robotic arm based on the determined position of the EM sensor.

    Abstract: Processes of localizing target papillas of renal anatomy involve advancing a ureteroscope to a target calyx of a kidney of a patient through at least a portion of a urinary tract of the patient, determining a positional offset between one or more position sensors associated with the ureteroscope and a target papilla of the kidney that is at least partially exposed within the target calyx, and determining a percutaneous access target based at least in part on one or more of a present position of the one or more position sensors and the offset.
