摘要:
Catheterization is carried out by inserting a probe into a cavity in a body of a subject. The probe has a contact force sensor (53), a transmitter (91), a receiver (93), and an ultrasound transducer (55) in its distal segment, After navigating the probe into contact with a target in a wall of the cavity, using the contact force sensor a desired contact force is established and maintained between the probe and the target. Responsively to readings by the receiver of signals from the transmitter, the distal end of the probe is oriented orthogonally to the target.
