Abstract: Techniques and examples pertaining to registering a medical image of a patient with an anatomical model of the patient are described. A processor of an apparatus may calculate a mapping matrix between a real space and a virtual space using one or more mapping objects. The processor may receive data indicating a physical position of a probe relative to the patient. The processor may subsequently determine a virtual position of the probe in the virtual space based on the mapping matrix such that the virtual position as defined in the virtual space corresponds to the physical position in the real space. The processor may then determine a cut plane of the anatomical model, wherein the medical image may represent an anatomical cross-section of the patient at the cut plane.

Abstract: A projector (20) projects a structured light pattern (46) along a first optical axis (44) onto a surface (80). A viewer (50) attached to the projector (20) receives a reflection of the structured light pattern (46) from the surface (80) along a second optical axis (54), and digitizes a two-dimensional snapshot. The optical axes (44, 54) are non-parallel, and they meet within a common field of view of the projector (20) and the viewer (50). A computer (61) interfaced to the viewer (50) receives the digitized snapshot, and analyzes it to mathematically model the surface for display and inspection. The projector and attached viewer are designed as a hand-held unit with a hand grip (66) and a trigger button (68) to trigger a snapshot. A guide tip (70) on the unit extends beside the two optical axes (44, 54) to the common field of view to position the hand-held unit.
