According to aspects of the present disclosure, a medical device may include an elongated member extending from a proximal end to a distal end, and an imaging component configured to receive image data in the body. The medical device also may include one or more memory components positioned in the medical device and configured to store image calibration data extracted from the image data received from the imaging component. In addition, the medical device may include a connector configured to connect the medical device to a control unit external to the medical device, wherein the control unit is configured to process the image calibration data stored on the one or more memory components and generate an image based on the processed image calibration data. 根据本揭示的方面，医疗装置包括从近端延伸到远端的细长构件和被构造成在体内接收图像数据的成像组件。医疗装置还包括位于医疗装置中的个以上存储组件，并被配置为储存由成像组件接收的图像数据中提取的图像校准数据。此外，医疗装置包括连接器，连接器被配置为将医疗装置连接到医疗装置外部的控制单元，其中控制单元被配置为处理储存在个以上存储组件中的图像校准数据，并基于处理过的图像校准数据而产生图像。
