Abstract
Methods, systems and computer program products of constructing a transform that registers a two-dimensional (2D) image and a three-dimensional (3D) device depicted in the image. The methods include determining a best pitch, spin and x-y-z positions of a 3D mathematical device model as compared to the device depicted in a first obtained 2D image, determining a best x-y-z position of a focal point as compared to the device depicted in the first image, and, based thereon, constructing a transform that registers the first image and the device.
