Abstract
A user-interface for aiding navigation of an endoscope through a lumen of a tubular anatomical structure during an endoscopy procedure includes a video region in which a live video feed received from the endoscope is displayed and an observation location map. The observation location map depicts a point of observation from which the live video feed is acquired within the lumen relative to a cross-sectional depiction of the lumen as the endoscope longitudinally traverses the tubular anatomical structure within the lumen during the endoscopy procedure.
