Abstract

According to one embodiment, a guidance system is described for assisting in an advancement of a medical component within a body of a patient. The guidance system features a probe and a console. The console is communicatively coupled to the probe and features AI-based visualization controls and AI-based guidance assistance logic. The AI-based visualization controls are configured to generate, position, and reposition a visualization area between the medical component and a targeted vasculature of the patient. The visualization area is a sub-region of a total imaging area rendered by the console. The AI-based guidance assistance logic is configured to monitor for a presence of the medical component within the visualization area, provide a feedback for generating a notification that the medical component is within the visualization area, and apply an imaging enhancement to at least a portion of imaged data within the visualization area to assist in the advancement.
