Abstract
A system and method for displaying an augmented reality including a medical device for acquiring image data, a first display device for displaying the image data, a first tracking element for locating the medical device, and a second tracking element for locating the first and a second display device. The system is configured to receive a planning dataset and generate the augmented reality based on the planning dataset and a spatial positioning of the medical device. The planning dataset is spatially arranged with respect to the first display device according to detected spatial positionings of the first and second display device. The second display device is configured for displaying the augmented reality.
Claims18
A system for displaying an augmented reality the system comprising:
- a medical device configured to acquire image data of a region under examination of a subject and provide the image data to a first display device;
- the first display device configured to display a graphical representation of the image data;
- a second display device configured to display a graphical representation of the augmented reality;
- a first tracking element configured to detect a spatial positioning of the medical device;
- a second tracking element configured to detect spatial positionings of the first display device and the second display device;
- a controller configured to:
- receive a planning dataset;
- and
- generate the augmented reality based on the planning dataset and the detected spatial positioning of the medical device, wherein in the augmented reality the planning dataset is spatially arranged with respect to the first display device in accordance with the detected spatial positionings of the first display device and the second display device, wherein the graphical representation of the augmented reality that is displayed by the second display device is at least partially overlaid and/or integrated into the graphical representation of the image data that is displayed by the first display device.
A method for generating an augmented reality, the method comprising:
- receiving a planning dataset;
- receiving image data of a region under examination of a subject from a medical device;
- displaying a graphical representation of the image data with a first display device;
- detecting a spatial positioning of the medical device with a first tracking element;
- detecting spatial positionings of the first display device and a second display device with a second tracking element;
- generating the augmented reality based on the planning dataset and the detected spatial positioning of the medical device, wherein the planning dataset is spatially arranged with respect to the first display device in accordance with the detected spatial positionings of the first display device and second display device;
- and
- displaying a graphical representation of the augmented reality with the second display device, wherein the graphical representation of the augmented reality that is displayed by the second display device is at least partially overlaid and/or integrated into the graphical representation of the image data that is displayed by the first display device.
A non-transitory computer implemented storage medium that stores machine-readable instructions executable by at least one processor to generate an augmented reality, the machine-readable instructions comprising:
- receiving a planning dataset;
- receiving image data of a region under examination of a subject from a medical device;
- displaying a graphical representation of the image data with a first display device;
- detecting a spatial positioning of the medical device with a first tracking element;
- detecting spatial positionings of the first display device and a second display device with a second tracking element;
- generating the augmented reality based on the planning dataset and the detected spatial positioning of the medical device, wherein the planning dataset is spatially arranged with respect to the first display device in accordance with the detected spatial positionings of the first display device and second display device;
- and
- displaying a graphical representation of the augmented reality with the second display device, wherein the graphical representation of the augmented reality that is displayed by the second display device is at least partially overlaid and/or integrated into the graphical representation of the image data that is displayed by the first display device.
