SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR GUIDANCE OF INTRALUMINAL DEVICES WITHIN THE VASCULATURE

Abstract: system for guiding an instrument within a vascular network of a patient are disclosed. in some embodiments, the system receives a medical image from a medical imaging device and identifies a distal tip and a direction the instrument in the image. the system may then determine a waypoint for the distal tip of the instrument based at least in part on the position and direction of the distal tip of the instrument. the system may then generate a trajectory command for moving the instrument through the vascular network from the current position to the waypoint. the system may operate in a closed loop. the system may provide the trajectory command to a robotic medical system configured to move the instrument according to the command.
