Abstract

A registration system and method includes a configurable device (104) having one or more moveable features (122) such that movement of the moveable features can be determined relative to a reference to define a specific configuration of the configurable device. An imaging system (110) has a display on which the configurable device is viewable. A processing device (112) is configured to register the configurable device with a coordinate system of the imaging system based on the specific configuration of the configurable device.
