Abstract:
An image guided navigation system for navigating a region of a subject includes an imaging device, a tracking device, a controller, and a display. The imaging device generates images of the region of the subject. The tracking device tracks the location of the instrument in the subject. The controller superimposes an icon representative of the instrument onto the images generated from the imaging device based upon the tracked location of the instrument. The display displays the image with the superimposed instrument.
