Abstract
Methods and systems for imaging a lumen, wherein imaging is manipulated to provide centered magnified version of the image, yielding precise and centered images for better efficacy in real-time treatment by practitioners and experts.
Claims20
A system for manipulating an image captured by a medical device, the system employing:
- a processor;
- a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having instructions for manipulating the image, the instructions comprising:
- receiving data corresponding to the image;
- detecting a feature within the image;
- determining the center of a lumen within the image based on the feature;
- adjusting the image based on a size of the lumen and the determined center of the lumen within the image;
- and
- magnifying the image such that the magnified image displays a centered field of view, wherein the centered field of view is determined based on the size of the lumen and center of the lumen.
