Abstract
A system, method, and apparatus for displaying a fused reconstructed image with a multidimensional image are disclosed. An example imaging system receives a selection corresponding to a portion of a displayed multidimensional visualization of a surgical site. At the selected portion of the multidimensional visualization, the imaging system displays a portion of a three-dimensional image which corresponds to the selected multidimensional visualization such that the displayed portion of the at least one of the three-dimensional image or model is fused with the displayed multidimensional visualization.
Claims16
An imaging system comprising:
- at least one photosensor configured to record a visualization of a surgical site;
- a visualization generation system configured to create a multidimensional visualization based on the recorded visualization of the surgical site;
- an interface configured to receive image data of the surgical site from at least one of a medical device and a server that stores the image data from the medical device;
- a processor in communication with a display device and a memory, the memory storing instructions for guiding a surgeon in making an incision in a selected portion of the multidimensional visualization;
- wherein execution of the instructions by the processor causes the processor to:
- create a three-dimensional image based on the image data;
- display the multidimensional visualization of the surgical site;
- select a respective portion of the three-dimensional image that corresponds to the selected portion of the multidimensional visualization;
- combine the respective portion of the three-dimensional image with the selected portion of the multidimensional visualization for a combined visualization;
- and
- cause the display device to display the combined visualization.
