Abstract:
A method for generating an image of an object of interest includes acquiring a first three-dimensional dataset of the object at a first position using an X-ray source and a detector, acquiring a second three-dimensional dataset of the object at the first position using an ultrasound probe, and combining the first three-dimensional dataset and the second three-dimensional dataset to generate a three-dimensional image of the object.
