Abstract

An electronic device includes a processor configured to generate a position movement prediction field indicating prediction of a potential positional change of a branch path by a patient's biological activity for one or more branch paths based on a blood vessel image of a reference frame, correct guidewire information extracted from a blood vessel image of a target frame with respect to a catheter position of the reference frame, and select a branch path to dispose the guidewire information, among one or more branch paths of a blood vessel region based on the position movement prediction field and the corrected guidewire information; and a display configured to visualize the guidewire information on the selected branch path.
