Abstract
In accordance with the teachings described herein, systems and methods are provided for generating images for use in systems, e.g., imaging systems. The method includes receiving at least a first set of images, providing a first registration, providing a display, and displaying a first image on said display. Further, the method includes providing a user interface, providing a second registration, and displaying a second image in said user interface. Further, the systems include an image database, a display, and a registration engine. The registration engine includes software instructions stored in at least one memory device and executable by one or more processors.
Claims18
A method, comprising:
- utilizing a first registration between a source image and a target image to generate a second registration between the source image and the target image;
- displaying the target image on a display device;
- receiving user input indicative of at least a portion of the target image on which to display an overlay image, wherein the second registration is generated in response to the user input;
- and
- displaying, on the display device, the overlay image over the portion of the target image, the overlay image is generated based at least in part on the second registration between the target image and the source image.
A non-transitory, computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a computing device having a user interface and a display, configure the processor to:
- generate a second registration between a source image and a target image based on a first registration between the source image and the target image;
- display the target image on the display;
- receive user input via the user interface indicative of a selection of a point of the target image;
- and
- display an overlay image on at least a portion of the target image established by the point selected, the overlay image is generated based on the second registration with respect to the portion of the target image on which the overlay image is displayed.
A system, comprising:
- a display;
- an input device;
- at least one processor;
- and
- a memory storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, configure the processor to:
- generate a rigid registration between a source image and a target image based on a deformable registration between the source image and a target image;
- display the target image on the display;
- receive, via the input device, user input indicative of a selection of a portion of the target image on which to display an overlay image, wherein the rigid registration is generated as a local approximation of the deformable registration within the portion of the target image selected;
- and
- display the overlay image on the portion of the target image, the overlay image is generated based at least in part on the rigid registration between the source image and the target image.
