An imaging and interventional system and methods are provided. The system
comprises an imaging device for acquiring volumetric image data for an
anatomical region of interest, a catheter for acquiring
electrophysiological (EP) measurements of the anatomical region of
interest, the catheter having at least one tracking coil for detecting
signals indicative of a position of the catheter, and, a processor
coupled to the catheter for receiving the EP measurements and signals
indicative of the position of the catheter. The position of the catheter
and EP measurements are combined and superimposed on a resultant image.
The method comprises acquiring volumetric image data for an anatomical
region of interest, acquiring position data for a catheter inserted in
the region of interest, obtaining electrophysiological (EP) measurements
for the region of interest and combining the image data, position data
and EP measurements into a resultant image for use in the interventional
procedure.
