Augmented reality display of surgical imaging

A system, comprising:

• an imaging sensor comprising a radiation sensor, the imaging sensor configured to sense a phenomena in a patient's body based on a reception of radiation that has passed through the patient's body;
• an imaging controller comprising a processor and memory, the imaging controller configured to:
• (i) generate an imaging-datastream based on the sensed phenomena and (ii) transmit, to a central controller, the imaging-datastream;
• the central controller comprising a processor and memory, the central controller configured to:
• receive the imaging-datastream;
• generate, from the imaging-datastream, a high-contrast videostream in which surgical tools and vascular tissue is represented with a dark color and in which surrounding tissue is represented with a light color, the dark color being darker than the light color;
• and
• transmit, to an augmented-reality controller, the high-contrast videostream;
• the augmented-reality controller comprising a processor and memory, the augmented-reality controller configured to:
• (i) receive the high-contrast videostream and (ii) instruct a head-worn display to render the high-contrast videostream such that the surgical tools and vascular tissue is rendered with the dark color;
• and
• the head-worn display comprising a transparent view-area and a renderer configured to render onto the view-area, the head-worn display configured to render the high-contrast videostream such that the surgical tools and vascular tissue is rendered with the dark color.
