In an embodiment, a medical system is disclosed. One embodiment of the medical system comprises a medical processing unit in communication with an intravascular instrument configured to be moved longitudinally within a body lumen and in further communication with a radiographic imaging source configured to obtain radiographic images of the intravascular instrument while the intravascular instrument is moved longitudinally within the body lumen. The medical processing unit is configured to receive radiographic images obtained by the radiographic imaging source, track the intravascular instrument within the radiographic images while the intravascular instrument is moved longitudinally within the body lumen, calculate a movement speed based on the tracking, compare the calculated movement speed to a predefined target movement speed, generate a speed-adjustment suggestion based on the comparison, and output the speed-adjustment suggestion to a display for review by a user.
