Abstract

Systems and methods for augmenting image data during heart valve repair procedures, such as transcatheter mitral valve repair (TMVr) or transcatheter tricuspid valve repair (TTVr). Image data may be obtained from an imaging device, and may be output to a display with one or more reference markers overlaid on the image data to simplify the visual data. Image data may be augmented or replaced with the reference markers. In some cases, reference markers may provide information about objects that are difficult to see in the image data. In other cases, the reference markers may provide clinical recommendations or feedback.
