Purpose#R##N#Catheter guidance is a vital task for the success of electrophysiology interventions. It is usually provided through fluoroscopic images that are taken intra-operatively. The cardiologists, who are typically equipped with C-arm systems, scan the patient from multiple views rotating the fluoroscope around one of its axes. The resulting sequences allow the cardiologists to build a mental model of the 3D position of the catheters and interest points from the multiple views.
