The invention relates generally to biopsy needle guidance which employs an x-ray / gamma image spatial co-registration methodology. A gamma camera is configured to mount on a biopsy needle gun platform to obtain a gamma image. More particular, the spatially co-registered x-ray and physiological images may be employed for needle guidance during biopsy. Moreover, functional images may be obtained from a gamma camera at various angles relative to a target site. Further, the invention also generally relates to a breast lesion localization method using opposed gamma camera images or dual opposed images. This dual head methodology may be used to compare the lesion signal in two opposed detector images and to calculate the Z coordinate (distance from one or both of the detectors) of the lesion.

Systems and methods are described for co-registering, displaying and quantifying images from numerous different medical modalities, such as CT, MRI and SPECT. In this novel approach co-registration and image fusion is based on multiple user-defined Regions-of-Interest (ROI), which may be subsets of entire image volumes, from multiple modalities, where the each ROI may depict data from different image modalities. The user-selected ROI of a first image modality may be superposed over or blended with the corresponding ROI of a second image modality, and the entire second image may be displayed with either the superposed or blended ROI.

A method, a system, and a program for high-fidelity three-dimensional modeling of a large-scale urban environment, performing the following steps:acquiring imagery of the urban environment, containing vertical aerial stereo-pairs, oblique aerial images; street-level imagery; and terrestrial laser scans,acquiring metadata pertaining to performance, spatial location and orientation of imaging sensors providing the imagery;identifying pixels representing ground control-points and tie-points in every instance of the imagery where the ground control-points and tie-points have been captured;co-registering the instances of the imagery using the ground control-points, the tie-points and the metadata, andreferencing the co-registered imagery to a common, standard coordinate system.The referenced co-registration obtained enables:extraction of ground coordinates for each pixel located in overlapping segments of the imagery, representing a 3D-point within the urban environment; andapplying data pre-processing and 3D modeling procedures;to create the high-fidelity 3D model of a large-scale urban environment.

The embodiment of the invention relates to a method for triggering the co-registration of a long term evolution (LTE) single-card dual-standby multimode terminal and the LTE single-card dual-standby multimode terminal, and aims to solve the technical problems of increasing of network signaling interaction times and power consumption of the terminal and air interface resource waste caused by respective registration in an LTE network and a second-generation (2G) / third-generation (3G) network, realize the co-registration in the LTE network and the 2G / 3G network, reduce air interface signaling consumption, reduce the power consumption of the terminal and prolong the standby time of the terminal. The method for the co-registration comprises the following steps that: the terminal determines a location area identifier of the 2G / 3G network in which the terminal is to be registered; and the terminal transmits an attach request message comprising the location area identifier to a mobile management entity of the LTE network to trigger the co-registration of the terminal and the mobile management entity of the LTE network in the LTE network and the 2G / 3G network.
