ABSTRACT:
A method for generating an image of a region of interest of a subject includes obtaining a set of magnetic resonance (MR) data for the region of interest. In addition, photographic data for at least one surface of the region of interest is obtained, for example, from a database or by using a camera for photographing the region of interest. An image is generated by using the set of MR data to generate a depiction of at least one structure of the region of interest and by using the photographic data to generate a depiction of at least one surface of the region of interest.
