Abstract: A medical system is provided. The medical system includes a guidewire configured to guide a catheter to a target location within a body, the guidewire including a sensor configured to collect sensor data indicative of a location within the body, and an electrical conductor configured to conduct electrical signals representing the sensor data. The medical system further includes a wireless transmitter and a first antenna electrically coupled with the sensor via the electrical conductor and configured to: receive the electrical signals representing the sensor data; generate, from the electrical signals, first wireless signals representing the sensor data; and transmit, via the first antenna, first wireless signals.
