Abstract
An apparatus includes a body and the first position sensor. The body defines a bore sized to receive a portion of a medical instrument having a rotary member. The rotary member is configured to generate interference in an electromagnetic field while rotating about a longitudinal axis. The body is configured to be fixedly secured to the medical instrument while allowing rotation of the rotary member about the longitudinal axis. The first position sensor is supported by the body and is configured to generate a signal indicating a position of the first position sensor in three-dimensional space. The first position sensor is oriented to offset the interference generated by the rotary member.
