Abstract
A control circuit accesses information regarding at least one field of view of a particular patient, which field of view contains information regarding at least one radiopaque object. The control circuit then processes that information using a plurality of different filters to yield a plurality of filtered fields of view that are each different from one another. Those filtered fields of view are then fused to yield fused information regarding the aforementioned radiopaque object (or objects).
