A method for registering images acquired by at least one imaging system. The method includes:positioning at least a first sensor (S) interdependent on the imaging system; positioning at least a second sensor (P) so as to make it interdependent on the movements of an organ of a patient of which at least two images are taken; acquiring the positions of said sensors (S, P) during acquisitions of the images; and registering the images according to the positions of the sensors (S, P). A system for registering images acquired by at least one imaging system includes means for acquiring the position of at least a first sensor interdependent on the imaging system and of at least a second sensor interdependent on the movements of an organ of a patient of which two images are taken, the registration being performed according to the positions of the sensors at the moment when the images are acquired.

A method for registering images acquired by at least one imaging system, the method comprising:
The method according to claim 1, wherein said sensors (S, P) are electromagnetic sensors.
The method according to claim 2, wherein the second sensor (P) is interdependent on a tool installed in proximity to the organ of the patient so as to adopt the movements of the organ.
The method according to claim 1, wherein the images are obtained by different imaging systems.
The method according to claim 4, wherein the images are obtained by an X-ray system, a magnetic resonance system, ultrasound scanner system and/or an angiography system.
A system for registering images acquired by at least one imaging system, the system comprising:
