Abstract
An imaging system and method includes a display, a processor, and electronic memory storing processor-executable code that operates by receiving an image of a patient with a medical device disposed therein, detecting the medical device within the image, detecting one or more reference landmark(s) within the image, and generating a combined image by superimposing an overlay on the image to indicate a position of the medical device relative to the reference landmarks. The processor-executable code further causes the image processing system to generate a checklist for verification by a user of the position of the medical device for presentation with the combined image on the display to help the user to adhere to clinical guidelines for placement of the device. In addition, the processor-executable code can prefill the checklist using an artificial intelligence model, with checklist responses used to train or validate the AI model, or for quality assurance purposes.
