Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for determining the position of a medical instrument, in particular an endoscopy capsule, having at least three mutually orthogonal receiving coils assigned to a position determining device generating a spatially variable position determining magnetic field by means of field generating means.
  • an electromagnetic navigation system based on an LC resonant circuit has been proposed.
  • the method is characterized by a sufficient stability against magnetic interference fields, however, only a low accuracy can be achieved.
  • only five degrees of freedom of position and orientation of the instrument can be determined with this method, a rotation about the longitudinal axis can not be determined.
  • the use of an electromagnetic navigation system based on orthogonal receiving coils, which are integrated in or arranged on the medical instrument, in particular the endoscopy capsule, is known. With these receiving coils, an external, location-dependent position determining magnetic field is detected and a position determined from the position measured values.
  • this method is very susceptible to external noise, so that it can easily lead to large errors in the position determination.
  • a magnet for example a permanent magnet
  • a very strong magnetic field in the range of about 0.1 T is used.
  • the already mentioned position determining magnetic field is only in the mT range and has a fairly high frequency. The fields of the much stronger navigation magnetic field disturb the weak position determining magnetic field significantly, so that is to be expected with large errors.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of specifying a method for position determination using a position determining magnetic field and associated receiving coils, which provides reliable position information even in the presence of external interference fields.
  • At least one stationary reference coil is provided with respect to the field generating means, in which method: first reference measured values of the reference coil are recorded with the position determining magnetic field switched on, after which the position is determined continuously at the same time position readings of the receiving coils and second reference measured values are taken by the reference coil,
  • At least one calculated value describing a possible interference field is determined
  • the position is determined taking into account the calculated value.
  • the method is advantageously applicable when a magnetically navigable instrument is used with a magnet that is responsive to a navigation magnetic field generating an interference field for the position determination magnetic field and generated by a navigation device, the first reference measured values being recorded when the navigation magnetic field is switched off.
  • the proposed, temporally indeed variable navigation magnetic field of a navigation device forms the main interfering field, which, in its order of magnitude, as explained in the introduction, is far stronger than the position-determining magnetic field. Since the first reference measured values have been recorded when the navigation magnetic field has been switched off, the interference of the navigation magnetic field can be deduced when the second reference measured values are taken later.
  • first reference measured values of the reference coil are initially recorded when the position determining magnetic field is switched on.
  • two embodiments are conceivable, which can also be connected to each other.
  • it makes sense of course, to record the first reference measured values if there are as far as possible no external interference fields.
  • the interference fields are mainly determined by a navigation magnetic field, such a point makes sense and leads to a significant improvement in the position determination.
  • the reference coil since its location is known, also serves to calibrate the position determining device.
  • information about the presence and the strength of one or more interference fields can be obtained by a continuous comparison of the first reference measured values with the second reference measured values. This is expressed on the basis of a calculated value which describes at least one possible interference field.
  • a calculated value which describes at least one possible interference field.
  • a plurality of calculated values may also be given. The calculated value or the calculated values obtained can then be used advantageously to improve the position determination.
  • the current position measurement values are discarded. If, during the course of the method, the interfering fields become too large, which can be determined on the basis of the calculated value, no positions from the current position measured values are determined at this point in time since the position obtained would be too strongly error-related. Roughly wrong positions can be advantageously prevented in this way. If the interference fields sink to a lower value again, the position is determined again.
  • a correction of the position measured values or of a position determined therefrom is carried out on the basis of the calculated value.
  • the error in the position determination occurring due to the interference fields can be calculated out again on the basis of the calculated value, so that the position determination as a whole becomes more accurate and a high degree of reliability is given even in the presence, for example, of a navigation magnetic field.
  • a quality value indicating the accuracy of the position determination is determined from the calculated value and assigned to the determined position. The quality value is then displayed to an operator at the same time as the determined position so that it can immediately recognize possible inaccuracies due to interference fields.
  • the comparison can preferably be carried out by subtracting the first and second reference measured values to form a difference value.
  • the portion of the position-determining magnetic field predetermined by the first reference measured values is subtracted out, so that the difference value describes the interference field or the disturbing field influence at the location of the respective reference coil.
  • a location-dependent calculation value for the interference field is determined on the basis of the difference values of a plurality of spatially offset reference coils, in particular using Bessel functions and / or spherical functions, wherein the location dependence is taken into account in the position determination .
  • the reference measured values influencing interference fields at a plurality of different locations in the area of the position-determining device it is therefore possible to model the corresponding interference field over the entire relevant area.
  • spherical functions and / or Bessel functions can be used.
  • a location-dependent calculation value is obtained, which at the appropriate time reflects the strength and orientation of the disturbance magnetic fields at arbitrary points in the region of the position determination.
  • the location dependence thus obtained can advantageously be taken into account in the position determination, in particular by examining the location or the area where the medical instrument is actually located for interference fields.
  • a) a first position is first determined from the position measurement values, after which b) the calculated value at the first position is calculated and used to correct the position measurement values, after which c) a second, corrected position is determined. Accordingly, it will first be averages which interference fields, as described by the calculation value, are present at the position described by uncorrected position measurement values. These can then be used to correct the position measurements and determine the corrected position. In a particularly preferred embodiment, this correction is carried out iteratively, which means that the steps b) and c) are repeated at least once with the second position as the first position.
  • Sufficiently accurate results for the position can be achieved in two to three iteration steps if the first position is exactly the same. In this way one approaches the actual position of the medical instrument.
  • a position determined at an earlier point in time is taken into account.
  • the immediately previously determined position can be considered. If, for example, a first position is determined from the current position measurement values which, in view of the immediately preceding determined position of the medical instrument, could not possibly have been reached, the position determined from the position measurement values can also be completely rejected and instead the last known position of the medical position Instruments are used as the first position in step b), so that more accurate position values can be obtained.
  • the reference coils used in the method need not be additionally added to a medical examination or treatment device with a position-determining device, but at least one registration coil fixedly provided for registering coordinate systems can be used as the reference coil. It is only relevant that the coils used as reference coils are arranged stationarily with respect to the position determining magnetic field. If more than three receiving coils are provided on the medical instrument, the method according to the invention can also be used for improved determination of an orientation of the instrument taking into account the calculated value. Then, an orientation of the instrument is determined in consideration of the calculated value in more than three receiving coils.
