Method and system for visualizing overlapping images

Abstract:

A medical imaging workstation and a method for visualizing overlapping images includes accessing a first image data set and a second image data set. The workstation and method includes displaying a first image on a display device, where the first image includes at least a portion of the first image data set and includes a structure. The workstation and method includes displaying a second image on the display device at the same time as the first image, where the second image includes at least a portion of the second image data and includes the structure, and where at least a portion of the second image overlaps the first image. The workstation and method includes automatically cyclically varying an opacity of the at least the portion of the second image that overlaps the first image.
