1. A method for conveying spatial relationships in three-dimensional medical imaging, the method comprising:

  • displaying a first three-dimensional representation of a first diagnostic view of at least a portion of the patient, the first three-dimensional representation being at a first viewing angle;

    receiving an indication of a second diagnostic view of the portion;

    animating a transition from the first diagnostic view to the second diagnostic view, the transition comprising a plurality of intermediary three-dimensional representations of the portion, each of the intermediary three-dimensional representations of the portion corresponding to different intermediary viewing angles; and

    displaying a second three-dimensional representation of the second diagnostic view of the portion after the transition, the second three-dimensional representation being at a second viewing angle different than the first viewing angle, the different intermediary viewing angles different than the first and second viewing angles.
