Abstract:
Medical imaging systems are provided that facilitate transitioning between viewing native and reconstructed medical images in the same viewport. In one embodiment, a method comprises retrieving indexed image metadata describing native medical images associated with a medical imaging data set selected for viewing. The method further comprises grouping the native medical images into one or more sets of related images, and for each set of the one or more sets of related images, sorting the related images into one or more subsets of 3D compatible images that can respectively be used to generate one or more 3D representations. The method further comprises generating a data model identifying the one or more sets of related images and the one or more subsets of 3D compatible images, and employing the data model to facilitate transitioning between rendering the native medical images and the one or more 3D representations in the same viewport.

Claim (Index 20):
A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:\n rendering one or more native medical images included in a set of native medical images of in a viewport of a graphical user interface in response to reception of a request to initiate viewing a medical image study corresponding to the set of native medical images; generating a data model that facilitates rendering three-dimensional representations of an object depicted in the set of native medical images in response to the reception of the request, wherein generating comprises:\n grouping, native medical images included in the set into subsets of related three-dimensional compatible images, and \n determining geometric volumes for the subsets based on respective native medical images included in the subsets; and \n activating one or more three-dimensional rendering functions of the graphical user interface based on completion or partial completion of the data model, wherein the one or more three dimensional-rendering functions comprise a transition function that provides for transitioning between rendering the one or more native medical images and the three-dimensional representations in the viewport using the data model.
