MULTI-DIMENSIONAL VISUALIZATION IN COMPUTER-ASSISTED TELE-OPERATED SURGERY

Techniques for multi-dimensional visualization in computer-assisted teleoperated surgery include a display device and one or more processing devices. The one or more processing devices are configured to receive 2D images of a human body, wherein the 2D images include images acquired using at least two different imaging modalities; display a first image of the 2D images on the display device in accordance with location information associated with the first image, the first image being acquired using a first imaging modality; and display a second image and a third image of the 2D images. The second and third images are overlaid on and registered with respect to the first image in accordance with the location information associated with the second and third images. The second and third images are acquired using a second imaging modality. The second and third images are displayed together for at least a period of time.
