Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2010130656A1] Medical navigation system (2) for the electromagnetic position and/or location determination of a sensor coil (8) present in a navigation area (10), comprising a plurality of navigation modules (4a.. c), each having at least one field coil (14) and a position coil (18a.. c), wherein the coils (14, 18a.. c) have a fixed and known spatial relation to each other, and wherein each navigation module (4a.. c) spans a navigation volume (12a.. c) and said navigation volumes (12a.. c) together form the navigation area (10), and wherein the individual navigation modules (4a.. c) are arranged such that the position coil (18a.. c) of a first navigation module (4a.. c) is located within the navigation volume (12a.. c) of at least one further navigation module (4a.. c) and at least the first and the further navigation module (4a.. c) are interconnected by a communication connection (20).
