Systems and Methods for Endoluminal Tracking with Therapeutic Delivery Sensing
Systems and Methods for Endoluminal Tracking with Therapeutic Delivery Sensing
Systems and methods are provided that can enable improved detection of a position within a body lumen at which a therapy is delivered and improved labelling of patient data sets. A system includes a first flexible elongate instrument comprising a plurality of imaging markers and a second flexible elongate instrument, comprising a therapeutic delivery device, configured for relative movement with respect to the first instrument. A treatment activation sensor is included to detect an activation energy associated with delivery of a therapy by the therapeutic delivery device. The system further includes a processor configured to establish a reference coordinate system based on the plurality of imaging markers, receive therapeutic delivery information at a plurality of locations in the body lumen from a location information sensor, and correlate the therapeutic delivery information with the detected activation energy to determine a position of the delivered therapy based on the reference coordinate system.
