Abstract
In this paper, we present an Augmented Reality technique that enables the real-time mapping of general medical imaging data over a real human body. The system is based on Bezier patches registered over the human body, allowing the creation of smooth curved surfaces, where the control points are identified by means of fiducial markers placed over the same body, on user-defined zones. Over this surface, we then map, in real-time, the clinical imaging data corresponding to non-invasive medical imaging modalities, such as echocardiography.
