Fusion of Biplane Fluoroscopy With Fiber Bragg Grating for 3D Catheter Shape Reconstruction

Nowadays, navigating therapeutic catheters takes place under 2D fluoroscopic imaging. This requires considerable training of the clinician and exposes him/her to X-ray radiation. Researchers have increasingly investigated alternative sensing techniques. In this respect, Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG)-bas
