Abstract
A system includes an input device and a processor. The processor is configured to add, to a point cloud representing an anatomical volume, multiple points corresponding to respective locations of a probe within the anatomical volume, to remove a subset of the points from the point cloud in response to an input received via the input device, subsequently to adding the points, and to add, to the point cloud, other points corresponding to respective subsequent locations of the probe within the anatomical volume, subsequently to removing the subset. Other embodiments are also described.

A system for real-time correction of anatomical maps, the system, comprising:
- an input device;
- and
- a processor, configured to:
- add, to a point cloud representing an anatomical volume, multiple points corresponding to respective locations of a probe within the anatomical volume,
- subsequently to adding the points, remove a subset of the points from the point cloud in response to an input received via the input device, and
- subsequently to removing the subset, add, to the point cloud, other points corresponding to respective subsequent locations of the probe within the anatomical volume.
A method for real-time correction of anatomical maps, the method comprising:
- using a processor, adding, to a point cloud representing an anatomical volume, multiple points corresponding to respective locations of a probe within the anatomical volume;
- subsequently to adding the points, removing a subset of the points from the point cloud in response to an input from a user;
- and
- subsequently to removing the subset, adding, to the point cloud, other points corresponding to respective subsequent locations of the probe within the anatomical volume.
A computer software product comprising a tangible non-transitory computer-readable medium in which program instructions are stored, which instructions, when read by a processor, cause the processor to:
- add, to a point cloud representing an anatomical volume, multiple points corresponding to respective locations of a probe within the anatomical volume,
- subsequently to adding the points, remove a subset of the points from the point cloud in response to an input from a user, and
- subsequently to removing the subset, add, to the point cloud, other points corresponding to respective subsequent locations of the probe within the anatomical volume.
