Abstract

Various methods and systems are provided for generating a fused image that includes image data captured by a first imaging system and a second imaging system, different from the first imaging system. For example, the method comprises; obtaining three-dimensional (3D) image data of an anatomical region of interest (ROI) of a patient; applying a multi-plane reformation (MPR) tool to the 3D image data to automatically select a slice of the 3D image data that includes the anatomical ROI and corresponds to a view of the anatomical ROI that is shown in a live x-ray image data; fusing the 3D image data with the live x-ray image data without use of a 3D viewer to generate a fused live image comprising 3D image data and live x-ray image data of the anatomical ROI; and outputting the fused live image for display and/or storage.
