Abstract
A system and method for providing image guidance for placement of one or more medical devices at a target location. The system can be used to display portions of a display object, such as a rendered medical image, at different transparency levels. The system can also be used to resolve co-located display objects, such as a co-located image guidance cue and rendered medical image. The system can further be used to adjust a point-of-view location for one or more medical display objects within a virtual 3D space.
Claims24
A method, comprising:
- determining a pose of a first medical device based at least in part on received emplacement information of the first medical device;
- determining a pose of an imaged area based at least in part on received emplacement information of a second medical device;
- receiving at least one image corresponding to the imaged area based at least in part on the emplacement of the second medical device;
- determining whether a portion of the first medical device satisfies a location threshold;
- based at least in part on a determination that the portion of the of the first medical device does not satisfy the location threshold, causing the one or more displays to display a portion of the image corresponding to a particular location of the imaged area at a first transparency level;
- determining whether the portion of the first medical device satisfies a proximity threshold;
- based at least in part on a determination that the portion of the first medical device satisfies the location threshold and the proximity threshold, causing the one or more displays to display the portion of the image corresponding to the particular location at a second transparency level.

A system comprising:
- a computer system in communication with a display, the computer system comprising a computer processor and a non-transitory storage medium, wherein the computer system is configured to:
- determine a pose of a first medical device based at least in part on emplacement information of the first medical device received from a first pose sensor;
- determine a pose of an imaged area based at least in part on emplacement information of a second medical device received from a second pose sensor;
- receive at least one image corresponding to the imaged area based at least in part on the emplacement of the second medical device;
- determine whether a portion of the first medical device satisfies a location threshold;
- determine whether the portion of the first medical device satisfies a proximity threshold;
- based at least in part on a determination that the portion of the first medical device satisfies the location threshold and the proximity threshold, cause the one or more displays to display a portion of the image corresponding to a particular location in the imaged area at a first transparency level, wherein the computer system causes the one or more displays to display the portion of the image corresponding to the particular location of the imaged area at a second transparency level based at least in part on a determination that the portion of the first medical device does not satisfy the location threshold.
