Abstract

A medical device-placing system including a medical-device tip-location sensor ("TLS") configured for placement on a chest of a patient, an ultrasound probe, a console, and an alternative-reality headset. The ultrasound probe can be configured to emit ultrasound signals into the patient and receive echoed ultrasound signals from the patient. The console can be configured to transform the echoed ultrasound signals to produce ultrasound-image segments corresponding to anatomical structures of the patient, as well as transform TLS signals from the TLS into location information for a medical device within the patient. The alternative-reality headset can include a display screen through which a wearer of the alternative-reality headset can see the patient. The display screen can be configured to display over the patient a virtual medical per the location information for the medical device within objects of virtual anatomy corresponding to the ultrasound-image segments.

Description

[0001] priority [0002] This application claims U.S. Patent Application No. 16 / 370,353, filed March 29, 2019, and its continuation-in-part parent U.S. Patent Application No. 16 / 209,601, filed December 4, 2018 (which claims a December 4, 2017 filing). priority benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 594,454). This application also claims the benefit of priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 62 / 680,299, filed June 4, 2018. Each of the aforementioned applications is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Background technique [0003] When placing a medical device in a peripheral vasculature, such as the vasculature of an arm or leg, it can be difficult to determine where the medical device or its tip is at any given point in time. For example, clinicians often use fluoroscopy to track medical devices such as guidewires or catheters, but the vasculature is not visible in this X-ray-based technique, making it impossible to precisely determine where the ti...
