Annotation: The equipment for an operating room is developed which realizes an interconnected technology of imaging and superposition of a surgical instrument in case when a heart arrhythmia is in the heart. The system is based on the technique of electrical location, providing continuous monitoring of the position of a tool and the registration of electrical signals of a heart, and 3-D tomographic images of anatomical structures of heart and blood vessels are synchronized with it.
