Composite Imagery Rendering in Diminished Reality Environment for Medical Diagnosis

Abstract:

Techniques for composite imagery rendering in a diminished reality environment for medical diagnosis are provided. In one aspect, a method for composite image rendering in a diminished reality environment for medical diagnosis includes: analyzing medical imagery scans for a patient visiting a medical office for consultation with a physician for a diagnosis; obtaining real-time images of the patient who is physically located in the medical office; creating a composite image of the patient comprising relevant portions of the medical imagery scans combined with the real-time images of the patient; selecting one or more portions of the composite image to diminish for the diagnosis; and rendering the composite image in a diminished reality environment.
