  • Patent number: 11937970
    Abstract: Various methods and systems are provided for calibrating a camera-based feature detection system for an x-ray system having a support surface, and a gantry operably connected to the support surface and a light source disposed on the gantry, where the gantry defines a system referential. The x-ray system includes a camera spaced from the gantry and operably connected to a calibration system, the camera defining a camera referential within which the support surface and gantry are positioned. The calibration system registers the camera referential to the system referential by operating the light source to position an indication on the support surface and by obtaining a number of camera images of the indication on the support surface and corresponding indication location in the system referential.
