Systems and processes for refining a registered map of a body cavity
A process of refining a map of a body cavity includes positioning a first probe and a second probe within the body cavity. Mapping elements on the first probe are used to gather local information from a plurality of locations along the body cavity. The absolute locations of the mapping elements are registered in a three-dimensional coordinate system, and are associated with the local information to generate the map. A mapping element on the second probe is then used to gather information local to a location between the plurality of locations along the body cavity. The absolute location of the mapping element is registered in the three-dimensional system and associated with the local information to refine the map.
