Abstract: Systems/techniques that facilitate improved spinal hardware rendering are provided. In various embodiments, a system can access a medical imaging voxel array depicting a spine of a medical patient. In various aspects, the system can determine whether the medical imaging voxel array depicts a set of surgical hardware inserted in the spine of the medical patient. In various instances, the system can, in response to a determination that the medical imaging voxel array depicts the set of surgical hardware, localize a surface that sagittally bisects the spine of the medical patient. In various cases, the system can render, on an electronic display, a butterfly-view of the medical imaging voxel array, wherein the butterfly-view can be hinged about the localized surface.

Abstract: A C-arm x-ray imaging device includes a radiation source, a detector, a control mechanism and a computing device to control an imaging procedure performed by the imaging system. The computing device includes a processor and an interconnected database containing machine-readable instructions for the operation of the processor and for processing the image data from the detector to create one or more 2D images of a subject and to reconstruct a 3D volume from the one or more 2D images. The processor is configured to determine the distribution of radiation attenuation values across at least one portion of the 3D volume, to determine a window preset for different material types represented in the distribution of radiation attenuation values, where the window presets are presented along with the 2D/3D images on the device display to allow quick switching between images optimizing viewing of different types of materials within the images.
