  • Patent number: 10671255
    Abstract: Medical imaging systems are provided that facilitate transitioning between viewing native and reconstructed medical images in the same viewport. In one embodiment, a method comprises retrieving indexed image metadata describing native medical images associated with a medical imaging data set selected for viewing. The method further comprises grouping the native medical images into one or more sets of related images, and for each set of the one or more sets of related images, sorting the related images into one or more subsets of 3D compatible images that can respectively be used to generate one or more 3D representations. The method further comprises generating a data model identifying the one or more sets of related images and the one or more subsets of 3D compatible images, and employing the data model to facilitate transitioning between rendering the native medical images and the one or more 3D representations in the same viewport.

  • Publication number: 20140140598
    Abstract: System and methods for 2D and 3D image integration and synchronization are disclosed. An example method includes displaying a first two-dimensional image via a first image viewer on a first screen, wherein the first two-dimensional image is from a first set of images and displaying a three-dimensional image via a second image viewer on the first screen, wherein the three-dimensional image is constructed from the first set of images and wherein the first image viewer and the second image viewer are linked to share commands and messages.

  • Patent number: 7010149
    Abstract: A method of fusion of a first digital radiographic image obtained as a result of scanning with a second digital radiographic image obtained by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). A CT interval of gray levels is selected first in the scanner image. Each pixel of the scanner image having a gray level lying within the CT interval is then replaced by a pixel obtained by digital processing of the pixel of the same coordinates as the MRI image. The final image corresponds to the scanner image in which the pixels of gray levels lying within the CT interval have undergone the digital processing.
