System and method of providing real-time dynamic imagery of a medical procedure site using multiple modalities
First Claim
1. A method for image guidance comprising:
- obtaining a first real-time imaging stream from a first medical device;
obtaining a second real-time imaging stream from a second medical device;
determining a relative position and orientation of the first medical device with respect to the second medical device based at least in part on first position and orientation data associated with the first medical device and second position and orientation data associated with the second medical device;
determining a relative position and orientation of the first real-time imaging stream with respect to the second real-time imaging stream based at least in part on the determined relative position and orientation of the first medical device with respect to the second medical device; and
causing one or more displays to display a composite medical image comprising;
at least a portion of the first real-time imaging stream, andat least a portion of the second real-time imaging stream spatially registered with the at least a portion of the first real-time imaging stream based at least in part on the determined relative position and orientation of the first real-time imaging stream with respect to the second real-time imaging stream.

Abstract
A system and method of providing composite real-time dynamic imagery of a medical procedure site from multiple modalities which continuously and immediately depicts the current state and condition of the medical procedure site synchronously with respect to each modality and without undue latency is disclosed. The composite real-time dynamic imagery may be provided by spatially registering multiple real-time dynamic video streams from the multiple modalities to each other. Spatially registering the multiple real-time dynamic video streams to each other may provide a continuous and immediate depiction of the medical procedure site with an unobstructed and detailed view of a region of interest at the medical procedure site at multiple depths. A user may thereby view a single, accurate, and current composite real-time dynamic imagery of a region of interest at the medical procedure site as the user performs a medical procedure.

13. A system for medical procedure image guidance comprising an image guidance system having one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to:
-
determine a relative position and orientation of a first medical device with respect to a second medical device based at least in part on first position and orientation data associated with the first medical device and second position and orientation data associated with the second medical device; determine a relative position and orientation of a first real-time imaging stream received from the first medical device with respect to a second real-time imaging stream received from the second medical device based at least in part on the determined relative position and orientation of the first medical device with respect to the second medical device; and cause one or more displays to display a composite medical image comprising; at least a portion of the first real-time imaging stream, and at least a portion of a second real-time imaging stream spatially registered with the at least a portion of the first real-time imaging stream based at least in part on the determined relative position and orientation of the first real-time imaging stream with respect to the second real-time imaging stream. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
