The ever increasing number of image modalities available to doctors for diagnosis purposes has established an important need to develop techniques that support work-load reduction and information maximization. To this end, we have improved on an image fusion architecture first developed for night vision applications. This technique, presented at Fusion 2002, utilizes 3D operators to combine volumetric image sets while maximizing information content. In our approach, we have combined the use of image fusion and userdefined pattern recognition within a 3D human-computer interface. Here, we present our latest advances towards enhancing information visualization and supporting pattern recognition. We also report …
