<p>A system and method for combined processing and displaying of two data sets, originating from two different radiological methods, capable of making interim results, yielded by an operation on one of the data sets, available for further processing of the other data set. Different imaging capabilities of the employed radiological methods promote predestine the data acquired using a particular method for a particular task, e.g. the segmentation of a given type of tissue. When the combined data of both methods is displayed, clinical users benefit from the complementary information. Care has to be taken, that only relevant information is presented to the user, as to avoid irrelevant data obscuring any data of interest. Therefore, the data to be displayed is filtered based on content, e.g. the type of tissue, and on location. The invention is particularly useful with computer tomography and three-dimensional rotational angiography.</p> |
