REGISTRATION SYSTEM FOR CARDIAC ULTRASOUND

Abstract

An ultrasound system includes an ultrasound scanner, a patient-worn registration system configured in at least a one-way communication with an interventional instrument, and a processor system. The processor system is configured to determine, based on the ultrasound data and positional data of the ultrasound scanner, a first location of the patient anatomy relative to the patient-worn registration system, determine, based on the at least a one-way communication, a second location of the interventional instrument relative to the patient-worn registration system; and determine, based on the first location and the second location, a third location of the interventional instrument relative to the patient anatomy. The processor system is configured to display a depiction of the patient anatomy based on the ultrasound data and a visual representation of the interventional instrument at the third location on a display device.
