Embodiment Construction

[0031] The present disclosure describes systems, devices, and methods for providing augmented reality solutions for enhanced cardiovascular surgery mapping, navigation, and procedural diagnosis. The most commonly performed surgical procedures, such as those used to treat cardiac conditions, present challenges for physicians. For example, for heart failure procedures that require transvenous access, these challenges include the inability to visualize branches of venous structures during positioning of the medical device (eg, when performing coronary sinus cannulation) and difficulties with cardiac lead placement. real-time assessment. Furthermore, for heart failure procedures requiring substernal access, these challenges include the need for a full thoracotomy, rib removal and / or lung deflation, and the lack of available tools suitable for navigating to the lead delivery site. The systems, devices, and methods described herein not only overcome these procedural challenges, but...

Abstract

An augmented reality system includes an augmented reality display system; and processing circuitry in communication with the augmented reality display system. The processing circuity configured to receive, from a mapping system, data associated with a subject's anatomical feature; receive, from a navigation system, an indication of a position of a treatment device within the subject's anatomical feature; and display, via the augmented reality display system, a virtual organ object and at least one of the data associated with the subject's anatomical feature and the indication of the position of the treatment device within the subject's anatomical feature overlaying a real-world environment viewable by a user via the augmented reality display system.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and systems for providing augmented / mixed reality solutions for enhanced cardiovascular surgery and / or procedure mapping, navigation and diagnosis. Background technique [0002] Cardiac arrhythmias, such as ventricular tachycardia and atrial fibrillation, present in the heart, disrupt the normal rhythm and heart efficiency. These arrhythmias can be treated using ablation techniques such as radio frequency (RF), ultrasound, microwaves, pulsed electric fields, cryoablation, and other forms of ablation. In the case of ablation techniques involving delivery of electrical therapy, catheters may be used to deliver ablation energy, or direct visualization may be used in conjunction with surgical ablation tools. [0003] For example, procedures such as pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) are commonly used to treat atrial fibrillation. This procedure may involve the use of a cryo-device, such as a cryo-balloon catheter, loc...
