Systems and methods for interactive control of window/level parameters of multi-image displays

A system comprising:

• a processor, a memory, a display, and a user input device, wherein the processor is in communication with the memory, the display, and the user input device, wherein the memory stores a set of instructions that executable configures the processor to:
• present a user interface having a first gradual level selector, a second gradual level selector, and a third gradual level selector, wherein the user interface is presented on the display;
• present a first volume rendering image and a second volume rendering image concurrently in the user interface such the first volume rendering image overlays the second volume rendering image, wherein the first volume rendering image has a first window parameter and a first level parameter, wherein the second volume rendering image has a second window parameter and a second level parameter;
• set the first gradual level selector to control the first window parameter and the first level parameter of the first volume rendering image, the second gradual level selector to control the second window parameter and the second level parameter, and the third gradual level selector to control a degree of transparency of the first volume rendering image and the second volume rendering image between a first point and a second point;
• adjust the third gradual level selector such that the first volume rendering image is shown and the second volume rendering image is not shown when the third gradual level selector is at the first point, the second volume rendering image is shown and the first volume rendering image is not shown when the third gradual level selector is at the second point, and the first volume rendering image and the second image are shown and are identical in the degree of transparency when the third gradual level selector is medial relative to the first point and the second point;
• link each of the first gradual level selector and the second gradual level selector to the third gradual level selector such that the third gradual level selector is adjusted proportionally between the first point and the second point inclusively and the first volume rendering image or the second volume rendering image becomes opaque or transparent when a user input causes movement of the first gradual level selector or the second gradual level selector respectively and;
• change a plurality of window parameters and a plurality of level parameters of a plurality of volume rendering images exclusive of the first volume rendering image and the second volume rendering image based on the first window parameter and the first level parameter or the second window parameter and the second level parameter being changed, wherein the plurality of volume rendering images are related to the first volume rendering image or the second volume rendering image.
