Abstract
Devices, systems, methods, and computer-readable media for registering an electromagnetic registration of a luminal network to a 3D model of the luminal network include accessing a 3D model of a luminal network based on computed tomographic (CT) images of the luminal network, selecting a plurality of reference points within the 3D model of the luminal network, obtaining a plurality of survey points within the luminal network, dividing the 3D model of the luminal network and the luminal network into a plurality of regions, assigning a plurality of weights to the plurality of regions, determining an alignment of the plurality of reference points with the plurality of survey points based on the plurality of weights, and generating a registration based on the alignment, the registration enabling conversion of the plurality of survey points within the luminal network to points within the 3D model of the luminal network.
