ABSTRACT:
A system for imaging and magnetically navigating a medical device within an operating region in a subject's body includes a first C-arm and a second C-arm. The system includes an imaging beam source and an imaging beam receiver mounted on the first C-arm disposed on opposite sides of the operating region to image the operating region. The system includes a pair of magnetic pods, which are movably mounted on either the first or second C-arm. The magnetic pods are movable between an imaging position and a navigating position in which the pods are disposed on opposite sides of the operating region in the same plane as at least one imaging beam source. The second C-arm is movable between an imaging position in which the imaging beam source and imaging beam receiver on the second C-arm is positioned so that the imaging beam sources and receivers are in the same plane.
