Abstract
A system and method for navigation of a luminal network including receiving a computed tomography (CT) image data set, generating a three-dimensional (3D) model, displaying the 3D model in a user-interface on a display operatively connected to the computing device, and receiving an indication of a location of a tumor in the CT image data set. The system and method further including displaying the location of the tumor in the 3D model, receiving an indication of a margin around the tumor to achieve a desired therapy, generating a pathway to the tumor for navigation of a catheter, receiving a location of a sensor associated with a navigation catheter and registering the CT image data set with a luminal network of a patient, displaying the location of the sensor within the 3D model that substantially corresponds to the location of the sensor within the luminal network of the patient.
