Abstract:
Systems and methods for image-based guidance for facilitating navigation of tubular networks. A region of interest in three-dimensional image data may first be segmented. An endoscopic instrument may be detected in two-dimensional intraoperative image data of the region of interest. A centerline of the detected endoscopic instrument may then be determined. The endoscopic instrument and the centerline may be backprojected to generate a three-dimensional backprojected volume. A device path of the endoscopic instrument may be generated based at least in part on the three-dimensional backprojected volume and the three-dimensional image data.
