    Abstract: A system may comprise an elongate flexible instrument including an imaging device disposed at a distal end portion of the elongate flexible instrument. The imaging device may include a multi-directional imaging array. The elongate flexible instrument may also include a localization sensor extending within the elongate flexible instrument. The system may also comprise a controller comprising one or more processors configured to register the localization sensor to a patient anatomy and receive orientation data for the distal end portion of the elongate flexible instrument from the localization sensor. Based on the orientation data, an imaging plane of the imaging device may be selected. An image in the selected imaging plane may be displayed. The image may be generated by imaging data from the multi-directional imaging array of the imaging device.

    Abstract: A surgical system may comprise a display device and an endoscope. The surgical system may also include a processing device configured to operate the surgical system to perform a process comprising receiving a source image and receiving a gaze location of a user of the surgical system. The process may also comprise determining a first region of the source image based on the gaze location. A second region of the source image partially surrounds the first region and includes a source distortion. The process may also comprise applying a distortion correction to the source image to generate a modified image by applying a first degree of distortion correction in the first region and a second degree of distortion correction in the second region. The second degree of distortion correction preserves the source distortion in a portion of the second region. The process may also comprise displaying the modified image.
