Abstract
Systems and methods for automatically navigating a medical image acquisition device are provided. 1) An initial image depicting a current position of a medical image acquisition device and 2) at least one of a target image depicting a target position of the medical image acquisition device or text-based instructions for navigating to the target position of the medical image acquisition device are received. Features are extracted from the at least one of the target image or the text-based instructions respectively using at least one of a machine learning based image encoder or a machine learning based text encoder. One or more actions for navigating the medical image acquisition device from the current position towards the target position are determined according to a learned policy based on the initial image and the extracted features. The one or more actions are output.
