1. A method for aligning an image data set with a patient using an augmented reality (AR) headset, the method comprising:
obtaining an image data set and a two-dimensional (2D) X-ray generated image of an anatomical structure containing at least one visible marker;
aligning the image data set to the X-ray generated image by using data fitting to align the anatomical structure shared between the image data set and the X-ray generated image;
defining a location of the at least one visible marker in the image data set using the X-ray generated image; and
aligning the image data set with the patient, based in part on the at least one visible marker correlated to the image data set as referenced to the at least one visible marker that is seen on the patient through the AR headset.
