Systems and methods are provided for positioning an intravascular device. A sensing device includes a plurality of nodes disposed on a distal portion of the sensing device. The distal portion of the sensing device is inserted into a circumflex artery. A plurality of node locations of the plurality of nodes are determined in a coordinate system when the distal portion of the sensing device is inserted into the circumflex artery. A projected plane of a mitral annulus is determined in the coordinate system based on the plurality of node locations. A projected deployment point for the intravascular device is determined in the coordinate system based on the plurality of node locations.

Intravascular device positioning system

The present disclosure describes devices, systems, and methods for intravascularly delivering an implantable device to a targeted anatomical site such as the mitral annulus. A delivery system includes a delivery member coupled to a handle assembly and extending distally from the handle assembly. A delivery catheter is concentrically positioned within an outer member and configured to advance the intravascular device relative to the outer member. The delivery catheter includes a distal can structure configured to house at least a portion of the intravascular device in a compressed, pre-deployed position.
