    Abstract: A system comprises a processor and a memory storing computer-readable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to: define a subregion of a model of an anatomic region, the subregion including a plurality of virtual tissue structures and corresponding to an area surrounding a tip of an image capture probe located within the anatomic region; compare a tissue structure in an image received from the image capture probe to at least a portion of virtual tissue structures of the plurality of virtual tissue structures; based on the comparison, determine a respective similarity measure between the image and each virtual tissue structure; identify a closest matched virtual tissue structure based on the determined similarity measures; and based on identifying the closest matched virtual tissue structure, register the image to the model to determine a virtual position for the image capture probe with respect to the model.

    Abstract: A medical system comprises a flexible instrument including a sensor adapted to provide tracking data for a point on the instrument. The medical system further comprises a memory storing images of a patient anatomy and a processor. The processor is configured to identify connected anatomical structures in the stored images of the patient anatomy, generate an anatomical centerline model from the identified connected anatomical structures, select a set of points disposed on a set of anatomical centerlines of the anatomical centerline model, generate a first plurality of cylindrical linkage elements representing the connected anatomical structures, receive the tracking data corresponding to the point on the instrument when the instrument is positioned within at least one of the connected anatomical structures, and match the point on the instrument to one of the first plurality of cylindrical linkage elements.

    Abstract: A method comprises advancing a medical instrument toward a target within a patient anatomy, and the medical instrument includes a marker. The method further comprises depositing the marker at a location at or near the target along a trajectory of the medical instrument. The method further comprises sensing the marker to indicate a location of the target. The method further comprises, based on the marker, determining a second trajectory along which a treatment instrument may be advanced toward the target to treat the target. The second trajectory is different than the trajectory.

    Abstract: A medical system may comprise a processor and a surgical device including a tracking system disposed along a length of an elongate flexible body. The processor may receive a first model of anatomic passageways of a patient anatomy. The first model may include a set of model passageways representing proximal and distal branches. The processor may also receive from the tracking system a shape of the elongate flexible body positioned within the proximal and distal branches. The processor may also determine, based on the shape of the elongate flexible body, a set of forces acting on the patient anatomy in response to the surgical device positioned within the proximal and distal branches. The processor may also generate a second model by deforming the first model based on the set of forces and display the second model and a representation of the elongate flexible body within the second model.

    Abstract: A medical system comprises a surgical device including a tracking system disposed along a length of an elongate flexible body of the surgical device. The system further comprises a memory storing anatomical data describing a patient anatomy and comprises a processor configured for: generating a first model, including a set of anatomical passageways including a proximal branch connected to a distal branch, from the stored anatomical data; determining a shape of the elongate body positioned within the proximal and distal branches; computing, based on the determined shape, a total set of forces acting on the set of anatomical passageways in response to the surgical device positioned within the proximal and distal branches; deforming the first model into a second model of the set of anatomical passageways by adjusting a joint between branches in the anatomical passageways in the first model based on the total set of forces, to thereby change a pose of a branch through which the surgical device extends and an additional branch through which the surgical device does not extend; and displaying a representation of the second model and a representation of the surgical device as positioned within the second model.

    Abstract: A processing system comprises a processor and a memory having computer readable instructions stored thereon. The computer readable instructions, when executed by the processor, cause the system to obtain a reference tree of nodes and linkages based on a reference three dimensional volumetric representation of a branched anatomical formation in a reference state. The computer readable instructions also cause the system to obtain a reference three dimensional geometric model based on the reference tree and detect deformation of the branched anatomical formation due to anatomical motion based on measurements from a shape sensor. The computer readable instructions also cause the system to obtain a deformed tree of nodes and linkages based on the detected deformation and create a three dimensional deformation field that represents the detected deformation of the branched anatomical formation.

    Abstract: A medical system comprises an image capture probe having a camera at its tip, a sensor system, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive an image from the camera when the image capture probe is located within an anatomic region of a patient anatomy; identify the tip's position based on information received from the sensor system; identify a tissue structure in the image; and define a subregion of a model of the anatomic region that corresponds to an area surrounding the tip. The processor is configured to compare the tissue structure to at least a portion of virtual tissue structures in the subregion to identify a best matched virtual tissue structure. The processor is configured to register the image to the model based on identification of the best matched virtual tissue structure to identify a virtual probe position for the tip with respect to the model.
