摘要 |
Embodiments of the invention provide systems and methods for generating combined image data representing a volumetric image of a subject and a color textured external surface of the subject. According to one embodiment, two-dimensional image data of a surface of the subject can be obtained from a two-dimensional imager. Volumetric data of the subject can be obtained from a volumetric scanner. The two-dimensional imager can have a known optical property and physical position relative to the volumetric scanner. External surface mesh data can be generated based on the volumetric data. The two-dimensional image data can be mapped to the external surface mesh data based on the known physical position of the two-dimensional imager and the volumetric scanner. Display image data including the two-dimensional image data mapped to the external surface map data combined with the volumetric data can be generated and displayed.
