Abstract
A method for visualizing tissue of a subject during a medical procedure includes receiving, during the medical procedure, a first imaging modality frame generated by imaging a region of the tissue of the subject according to a first imaging modality and a second imaging modality frame generated by imaging a region of tissue of the subject according to a second imaging modality; determining whether an attribute of the second imaging modality frame is below a threshold; and in accordance with determining that the attribute of the second imaging modality frame is below the threshold: generating an artificial second imaging modality frame using a machine learning model and the first imaging modality frame, and displaying, during the medical procedure, the first imaging modality frame in combination with the artificial second imaging modality frame.
