    Abstract: A method of modeling anatomic deformation comprises receiving a reference three dimensional model of a branched anatomical formation in a reference state. The method further comprises detecting deflection of the branched anatomical fomation with a shape sensor to create a three dimensional deformation field. The method further comprises applying the three dimensional deformation field to the reference three dimensional model to create a deformed three dimensional model of a deformed state of the branched anatomical formation. The method further comprises dynamically displaying an image of the deformed three dimensional model of the deformed state of the branched anatomical formation. The method further comprises displaying a composite image including an image of an interventional instrument positioned within the branched anatomical formation and the dynamically displayed image of the deformed three dimensional model of the deformed state of the branched anatomical formation.

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