Patent attributes
A system for updating a three dimensional (3D) model based on a deformed or displaced anatomical structure in a body includes a first imaging device configured to capture an image inside of a body, a location sensor installed in the first imaging device and configured to identify a location of the first imaging device, a memory configured to store one or more programs and a 3D model of at least a portion of the body, and a controller. The controller is configured to perform the one or more programs to identify a location of an anatomical structure, which is captured in the image, in the body based on the location of the location sensor, and/or to identify a shape of the anatomical structure in the image. The controller updates, as necessary, the 3D model based on the location and/or the shape of the anatomical structure.
