Catheter apparatus has controller to reconstruct two dimensional image to three dimensional image based on position/azimuth data of catheter and controls image photography operation with respect to detected position of catheter

摘要

Catheter apparatus, comprising a controller (5) producing two dimensional (2D) image based on image signal obtained with respect to response light from inspection portion, is new. The controller reconstructs 2D image to three dimensional image based on position and azimuth data obtained form position sensor provided at catheter tip . It controls image photography operation with respect to position of catheter (2) detected by position sensor.
