    摘要: Apparatus for controlling a steerable invasive probe having a handle. The apparatus includes a platform and a jig, which is mounted on the platform and is configured to receive the handle. The jig includes at least a first gear that is positioned and shaped to rotate the handle about an axis of the probe and a second gear that is positioned and shaped to operate a control on the handle for deflecting a tip of the probe. A drive module includes one or more motors. A transmission is coupled to the drive module and to the jig so as to controllably rotate at least the first and second gears and to translate the platform along a direction parallel to the axis in order to advance and retract the probe.

    摘要: An apparatus includes detection circuitry and gating circuitry. The detection circuitry is configured to sense a radio frequency (RF) ablation signal that is applied to a heart by an intra-body probe, and to identify time intervals during which an amplitude of an ablation signal is within a predefined window. The gating circuitry is configured to gate an electrocardiogram (ECG) signal acquired in the heart, such that the ECG signal is sampled only within the identified time intervals.

    摘要: A system is used for robotically controlling movement of a human-controllable catheter, wherein the catheter has at least one position sensor for generating or receiving signals used for determining six dimensions of location and orientation information. The system uses a robotic control mechanism and a computer for driving the robotic control mechanism to (i) translationally move the catheter distal end in a vicinity of a target, (ii) deflect the distal end of the catheter, and (iii) rotate the catheter. The computer determines roll of the catheter using six dimensions of location and orientation information based on signals generated or received from the at least one position sensor.

    摘要: A calibration apparatus includes a fixture, which is coupled to accept a probe so that a distal tip of the probe presses against a point in the fixture and produces first measurements indicative of a deformation of the distal tip relative to a distal end of the probe, in response to pressure exerted on the distal tip. A sensing device is coupled to the fixture and is configured to produce second measurements of a mechanical force exerted by the distal tip against the point. A calibration processor is configured to receive the first measurements from the probe, to receive the second measurements from the sensing device and to compute, based on the first and second measurements, one or more calibration coefficients for assessing the pressure as a function of the first measurements.
