System and method of providing real-time dynamic imagery of a medical procedure site using multiple modalities
First Claim
1. A method of medical procedure image guidance, comprising the steps of:
- receiving real-time first spatial state data associated with a first medical device;
obtaining first medical imaging data associated with the first medical device;
receiving real-time second spatial state data associated with a second medical device that is different from the first medical device;
obtaining second medical imaging data associated with the second medical device;
determining, using one or more processors, a spatial relationship between the first medical device and the second medical device based at least in part on the first spatial state data and the second spatial state data; and
causing a display device to display composite medical imaging data comprising at least a portion of the first medical imaging data and at least a portion of the second medical imaging data based at least in part on the determined spatial relationship between the first medical device and the second medical device.

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. As such, a surgeon, or other medical practitioner, may view a single, accurate, and current composite real-time dynamic imagery of a region of interest at the medical procedure site as he/she performs a medical procedure, and thereby, may properly and effectively implement the medical procedure.
