US Classification:

382131

Abstract:

System and methods for 2D and 3D image integration and synchronization are disclosed. An example method includes displaying a first two-dimensional image via a first image viewer on a first screen, wherein the first two-dimensional image is from a first set of images and displaying a three-dimensional image via a second image viewer on the first screen, wherein the three-dimensional image is constructed from the first set of images and wherein the first image viewer and the second image viewer are linked to share commands and messages. The example method also includes receiving a first instruction to modify a selected one of the first two-dimensional image or the three-dimensional image, modifying the selected one of the first two-dimensional image or the three-dimensional image based on the first instruction via the first image viewer or the second image viewer corresponding to the selected image and correspondingly modifying the other of the first two-dimensional image or the three-dimensional image based on the first instruction via the other of the first image viewer or the second image viewer corresponding to the unselected one of the first two-dimensional image or the three-dimensional image.
