Abstract
Systems and methods for navigating a catheter in a patient using a robotic navigation system with risk management are provided. An input medical image of a patient is received. A trajectory for navigating a catheter from a current position to a target position in the patient is determined based on the input medical image using a trained segmentation network. One or more actions of a robotic navigation system for navigating the catheter from the current position towards the target position and a confidence level associated with the one or more actions are determined by a trained AI (artificial intelligence) agent and based on the generated trajectory and a current view of the catheter. In response to the confidence level satisfying a threshold, the one or more actions are evaluated based on a view of the catheter when navigated according to the one or more actions. The catheter is navigated from the current position towards the target position using the robotic navigation system according to the one or more actions based on the evaluation.
