  • Abstract
    In this paper we propose an augmented reality system that superimposes MRI onto the patient model. We use a half-silvered mirror and a handheld device to superimpose the MRI onto the patient model. By tracking the coordinates of the patient model and the handheld device using optical markers, we are able to transform the images to the correlated position. Voxel data of the MRI are made so that the user is able to view the MRI from many different angles.
