Abstract
A workstation for calibrating a robotic instrument () has a distal tip () within an X-ray image space () of an X-ray modality (). The workstation employs a calibration controller () for calibrating a remote center of motion (RCM) length of the robotic instrument () responsive to X-ray images () of different poses of the distal tip () of the robotic instrument () within the X-ray image space (), and further employs a robotic instrument controller () for controlling a guidance of the robotic instrument () within the X-ray image space () from the RCM calibration. The robotic instrument () may include an endoscope whereby the calibration controller () is further employed to calibrate a focal length of the robotic instrument () responsive to the X-ray images () and one or more endoscope image(s) () of the X-ray image space () for controlling the guidance of the robotic instrument () within the X-ray image space () from the RCM/focal length calibrations.
