A METHOD OF REGISTERING ULTRASOUND IMAGES TO AN ANATOMICAL MAP

A mechanism for registering ultrasound images with an anatomical map generated using a dielectric imaging process. The positions of electrodes that move with the ultrasound probe are monitored using the same dielectric imaging system that generated the anatomical map. The position at which ultrasoun...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A mechanism for registering ultrasound images with an anatomical map generated using a dielectric imaging process. The positions of electrodes that move with the ultrasound probe are monitored using the same dielectric imaging system that generated the anatomical map. The position at which ultrasound images are generated is captured, and this information is used to register the ultrasound image(s) with respect to the anatomical map.
