In one embodiment a system may comprise a controller including a master input device; and an electromechanically steerable elongate instrument having proximal interface and portions, the proximal interface portion being configured to be operatively coupled to an electromechanical instrument driver in communication with the controller, the distal portion being configured to be interactively navigated adjacent internal tissue structures of a patient's body in response to signals from the controller; wherein the controller is operatively coupled to a treatment interactivity variable sensor selected from the group consisting of: a cardiac electrogram electrode, an RF generator power output sensor, an instrument distal portion impedance sensor, and an instrument distal portion force sensor; and wherein the controller is configured to affect the operation of the electromechanically steerable elongate catheter by automatically executing an instrument movement or treatment command based upon changes in information received from the treatment interactivity variable sensor.
