    Abstract: An augmented reality method for an endoscope includes constructing a first virtual three-dimensional model by using the volume image; setting a reference frame of a position tracking device as a global reference frame; obtaining a second virtual three-dimensional model of the subject by using laser scanning; calculating a first transformation between the first virtual three-dimensional model and the second virtual three-dimensional model by the iterative closest point algorithm, and applying the first transformation to the first virtual three-dimensional model to generate a third virtual three-dimensional model; tracking the first tracker by the position tracking device to provide an endoscopic virtual position; imaging a virtual image corresponding to an endoscopic image imaged by the endoscope based on the endoscopic virtual position and the third virtual three-dimensional model, and superimposing the endoscopic image with the virtual image to display a superimposed image.
