    摘要: A catheter system comprises an elongate flexible catheter and a support structure mounted on the catheter. The support structure comprises a first alignment feature and a second alignment feature. The first alignment feature is configured to mate with a first sensor component and the second alignment feature configured to mate with a second sensor component. When the system further comprises a first sensor component mated with the first alignment feature and a second sensor component mated with the second alignment feature, the first sensor component is fixed relative to the second sensor component in at least one degree of freedom at the support structure by the first and second alignment features.

    摘要: A medical system comprises a catheter having a first section, a second section and a main lumen extending through the first and second sections. The system also includes an imaging probe sized to extend through the main lumen of the catheter. The system also includes a first electromagnetic sensor extending along a longitudinal sensor axis at a proximal end of the first section and a second electromagnetic sensor extending along the longitudinal sensor axis at a distal end of the first section. The first section between the proximal and distal ends flexibly couples the first and second electromagnetic sensors so that the first electromagnetic sensor is movable with respect to the second electromagnetic sensor. The system also includes a third electromagnetic sensor positioned on the imaging probe and a fiber shape sensor system that extends through the first section between the proximal and distal ends and along the first electromagnetic sensor and the second electromagnetic sensor.

    摘要: In a robotic endoscope system, the orientation of a captured camera view at a distal tip of a robotic endoscope and displayed on a screen viewable by an operator of the endoscope is automatically maintained at a roll orientation associated with a setpoint so as not to disorient the operator as the endoscope is moved, flexed and its tip turned in different orientations. A processor generates a current commanded state of the tip from operator input and modifies it to maintain the setpoint roll orientation. To generate the modified current commanded state, the current commanded roll position and velocity are constrained to be a modified current commanded roll position and velocity that have been modified according to a roll angular adjustment indicated by a prior process period commanded state of the tip and the setpoint. The processor then commands the robotic endoscope to be driven to the modified commanded state.

    摘要: A shape sensing apparatus comprises an instrument including an elongated shaft with a neutral axis. The shape sensor also includes a first shape sensor with an elongated optical fiber extending within the elongated shaft at a first radial distance from the neutral axis. The apparatus also includes a shape sensor compensation device extending within the elongated shaft. The apparatus also comprises a tracking system for receiving shape data from the first shape sensor and compensating data from the shape sensor compensation device for use in calculating a bend measurement for the instrument.
