Abstract: An apparatus for correction of a direction to which a tool channel or a camera moves or is bent in a case where a displayed image is rotated. The apparatus includes at least one memory and at least one processor that executes instructions stored in the memory to receive a directional command of a capturing direction of a camera, move the capturing direction of the camera according to the received directional command, detect a rotation amount of a captured image displayed on a monitor, wherein the captured image is captured by the camera, and correct, based on the detected rotation amount, directional information corresponding to a particular directional command or directional coordinate for moving the camera, wherein the directional information is used for moving the capturing direction of the camera.

Abstract: One or more devices, systems, methods, and storage mediums for performing image correction and/or adjustment are provided herein. Examples of such image correction and/or adjustment include, but are not limited to, correction of a direction to which a tool channel or a camera moves or is bent in a case where a displayed image is rotated. Examples of applications include imaging, evaluating, and diagnosing biological objects, such as, but not limited to, for Gastro-intestinal, cardio, bronchial, and/or ophthalmic applications, and being obtained via one or more optical instruments, such as, but not limited to, optical probes, catheters, endoscopes, and bronchoscopes. Techniques provided herein also improve processing and imaging efficiency while achieving images that are more precise, and also achieve imaging devices, systems, methods, and storage mediums that reduce mental and physical burden and improve ease of use.

Abstract: A robot-assisted endoscope system and control methods thereof allow a user to perform intraluminal interventional procedures using a steerable sheath. A processor generates a ghost image based on a non-real-time insertion trajectory of the sheath, and a real-time image based on a real-time insertion trajectory for inserting an interventional tool through the sheath towards the target site. A display screen outputs navigation guidance data for informing a user how to manipulate the distal section of the sheath towards the target site such that the real-time image overlaps or coincides with at least part the ghost image and the real-time insertion trajectory becomes aligned with the non-real-time insertion trajectory.

Abstract: Some devices, systems, and methods obtain a fluoroscopic image and corresponding C-arm positional information of the fluoroscopic image, wherein the fluoroscopic image depicts a distal end of a bendable medical device, and wherein the C-arm positional information indicates a rotation angle of a C-arm of a C-arm scanner; obtain an orientation of the distal end in an image plane of the fluoroscopic image, wherein the image plane is defined in a detector reference frame; obtain an instructed direction; determine, in the image plane, a movement direction of the distal end that corresponds to the instructed direction; map the movement direction from the image plane to a distal-end reference frame of the distal end, wherein the mapping is based on an orientation of the distal end in an intermediate reference frame and on the C-arm positional information; and control the distal end to move according to the mapped movement direction.

Abstract: A system and method that provides navigation guidance for intraluminal procedures comprises: a catheter configured to be inserted into a lumen receive an actuating force from an actuator; and a tracking system configured to acquire position and orientation of the catheter with respect a lumen. A processor in communication with the actuator and the tracking system is configured to: register a position and/or orientation of the catheter tip with respect to a reference target, and generate one or more satellite targets in a region of interest surrounding the reference target. A display screen displays a virtual representation of the distal end of the catheter, and a virtual representation of the one or more satellite targets, as navigation guidance. A user is able to determine how to align the catheter tip with the one or more satellite targets to perform an intraluminal procedure.
