Control scheme calibration for medical instruments
Methods, systems, and devices for calibrating a medical instrument are discussed herein. For example, a first instrument can be configured to access an anatomical site via a first access path and a second instrument can be configured to access the anatomical site via a second access path. The second instrument can include an imaging component configured to provide image data representative of the anatomical site and the first instrument. A difference can be identified between a first coordinate frame associated with the first instrument and a second coordinate frame associated with the second instrument. A control frame of reference associated with the first instrument can be updated based at least in part on the difference.

generate a user interface including an image representation of the image data and an alignment indicator that includes a ring and one or more marking indicators representing an estimated orientation of the one or more markings relative to an orientation of the second instrument;
receive input associated with an adjustment to the alignment indicator;
