Abstract:
A CT alignment system includes a central processing unit (CPU) that processes a plurality of CT images. The CPU determines a location of a main carina from the plurality of CT images and sets the main carina as a point of origin. An x-coordinate, a y-coordinate, and a z-coordinate is calculated for each pixel in each CT image among the plurality of CT images based on the point of origin. A 3D model is rendered from the plurality of CT images and the x-coordinate, the y-coordinate, and the z-coordinate for each pixel in each CT image is associated with a corresponding voxel in the 3D model. The x-coordinate, the y-coordinate, and the z-coordinate for each corresponding voxel in the 3D model is stored as voxel position data. A graphics processing unit (GPU) renders a three dimensional (3D) model based on the plurality of CT images and the voxel position data which is displayed on a display.

Claim (Index 21):
The CT alignment system according to  claim 17 , wherein the z-coordinate of each CT image in the XYZ coordinate system is calculated:\n Np*S\u2212Nc*S,  where Np is a slice number of each CT image, Nc is a slice number of the reference CT image, and S is the distance between every two adjacent CT images.
