Abstract

La présente invention comprend un système, un procédé et un produit programme d'ordinateur pour augmenter une visualisation de réalité pour une injection faciale. Des données de référence provenant de la tête d'un patient sont obtenues. La tête comprend un visage et des structures anatomiques. Les données de référence comprennent des données faciales et des données structurales. Une image du visage est enregistrée par l'intermédiaire d'une caméra. Une carte spatiale est déterminée sur la base des données faciales et de l'image. Un déplacement structural est déterminé sur la base de la carte spatiale et des données structurales. L'image est augmentée sur la base du déplacement structural et représentée par l'intermédiaire d'un outil de visualisation. Grâce à la détermination du déplacement structural, une image dynamique peut être dynamiquement augmentée sur la base d'un déplacement structural déterminé de manière dynamique. Les structures anatomiques peuvent comprendre des vaisseaux sanguins. Les données structurales peuvent comprendre des données de vaisseau sanguin. Le déplacement structural peut comprendre un déplacement de vaisseau.
