A system and method includes a medical device configured to be inserted into a subject having an imaging coil coupled thereto and configured to be inserted into the subject during a medical procedure to provide tracking information regarding a position of the medical device. A circuit is connected to the imaging coil to switch the circuit between an energy harvesting configuration and an image data acquisition configuration. The circuit includes an energy harvesting path and an imaging data path connected to the imaging coil that are electrically distinct. An energy storage device is connected to receive power delivered along the energy harvesting path when the circuit is in the energy harvesting configuration. An amplifier is connected to receive power from the energy storage device and receive imaging data signals from the imaging coil over the imaging data path to thereby amplify the imaging data signals.
