ABSTRACT:
A system for use during a medical or surgical procedure on a body. The system modifies a reference image data set according to a density image of a body element during a procedure, generates a displaced image data set representing the position and geometry of the body element during the procedure, and compares the density image of the body element during the procedure to the reference image of the body element. The system also includes a display utilizing the displaced image data set generated by the processor to illustrate the position and geometry of the body element during the procedure. Methods relating to the system are also disclosed.
