Abstract

Described embodiments include a system, method, and computer program product. A described system includes an image coregistration circuit that coregisters a first depiction of a region of interest of a mammalian body part during a first condition by a reference medical image and a second depiction of the region of interest of the mammalian body part during a second condition by a target medical image. The coregistration is at least partially based on the first spatial relationship and on the second spatial relationship. The described system includes a computer-readable media configured to maintain informational data corresponding to the coregistration of the first depiction of the region of interest and the second depiction of the region of interest.
