ABSTRACT:
A tracking system monitors the position of a device within a subject and superimposes a graphic symbol on a diagnostic image of the subject. Registration of the tracked location with the diagnostic image is maintained in the presence of subject motion by monitoring subject motion and adjusting the display to compensate for subject motion. Motion monitoring can be performed with ultrasonic, optical or mechanical methods. The display can be adjusted by modifying the displayed location of the device or it can be adjusted by translating, rotating or distorting the diagnostic image.
