Abstract

Visual assisted guidance of an ultra thin flexible endoscope (24) to a predetermined region of interest within a lung during a bronchoscopy procedure. The region may be an opacity identified by non invasive imaging methods, such as high resolution computed tomography (HRCT) or as a malignant lung mass that was diagnosed in a previous examination. An embedded position sensor (84) on the flexible endoscope (24) indicates the position of the distal tip of the probe in a Cartesian coordinate system during the procedure. A visual display (62) is continually updated, showing the present position and orientation of the marker in a 3-D graphical airway model generated from image reconstruction. The visual display (62) also includes windows depicting a virtual fly through perspective and real time video images acquired at the head of the endoscope, which can be stored as data, with an audio or textual account.
