Abstract

Described embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product. A described system includes a receiver circuit that receives at least two medical images that each includes a respective region of interest of a mammalian body part. The receiver circuit also receives at least two reference images that each includes a respective landmark subsurface feature of the mammalian body part. Each landmark subsurface feature has a respective spatial relationship to a respective region of interest. The system includes a coordinate analysis circuit configured to determine a common frame of reference at least partially based on a landmark subsurface feature included in a reference image. The system includes a registration circuit configured to register the respective regions of interest. The registration is based on the determined common frame of reference. The system includes a computer-readable media configured to maintain informational data corresponding to the respective registered regions of interest.
