Patent ID: 8099299

Claim:
A system comprising: a memory device having a plurality of routines stored therein; a processor configured to execute the plurality of routines stored in the memory device, the plurality of routines comprising: a routine configured to, when executed, access a first patient deviation image generated through comparison of an image of at least one anatomical region of a patient to a standardized structural reference image, the first patient deviation image including a visual representation of the extent of structural differences between the at least one anatomical region of the patient and that of the standardized structural reference image; a routine configured to, when executed, access a second patient deviation image generated through comparison of an additional image of the at least one anatomical region of the patient to a standardized functional reference image, the second patient deviation image including a visual representation of the extent of functional differences between the at least one anatomical region of the patient and that of the standardized functional reference image; a routine configured to, when executed, generate a composite patient deviation image indicative of both the structural differences and the functional differences based on at least the first and second patient deviation images; and a routine configured to, when executed, output the composite patient deviation image.
