    Abstract: A method performed by a computing system comprises determining an entry position and entry vector of an entry port in a surgical coordinate space. The entry port provides a passageway for insertion of a first medical instrument into a patient's body. The determination of the entry position and entry vector occurs while the first medical instrument is external to the entry port. The method also comprises positioning the first medical instrument based on the entry position and the entry vector of the entry port and advancing a distal end of the first medical instrument along the entry vector into the entry port.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for performing a minimally invasive procedure within anatomic passageways include an outer catheter including one or more first lumens, a sealing device coupled to the outer catheter, an inner instrument configured to be slideably deployed through one of the one or more first lumens, and one or more first sensors for detecting bleeding wherein the one or more first sensors are configured to be positioned distal to the sealing device. In some embodiments, the outer catheter includes a fiber optic shape sensor. In some embodiments, the inner instrument includes a second lumen, wherein a working instrument is configured to be slideably received through the second lumen. In some embodiments, the inner instrument or the working instrument includes a dilation device for expanding an opening in a surface of the anatomic passageways at a point of entry. In some embodiments, the inner instrument includes a biopsy needle.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are devices, systems, methods, and computer program products for planning and performing medical procedures. In some embodiments, a system for planning a medical procedure includes a processor and a memory operably coupled to the processor. The memory can store instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the system to perform operations including: receiving image data of an anatomic region including a plurality of lymph nodes and a target lesion; generating a three-dimensional model of the anatomic region by segmenting the image data; selecting a subset of the lymph nodes to be biopsied during the medical procedure based at least in part on a location of the target lesion in the three-dimensional model; and determining a sequence for navigating a biopsy device to locations of the subset of the lymph nodes during the medical procedure.
