Methods and systems for processing and / or superimposing a medical image of an anatomical body (e.g., a heart) with graphical information are provided. Reference elements and / or reference catheter are placed in contact with the anatomical body. A physical structure within a navigational coordinate system is located using the reference elements and / or reference catheter.

An image processing apparatus is capable of generating distortion-free accurate image data. The image processing apparatus has an image entering unit, an image processor, and a memory. Slice data read by the image entering unit is stored in the memory. The image processor determines whether the slice data stored in the memory is of significance or not. Then, the image processor calculates a moved distance and tilt of the slice data that has been detected as being of significance, and calculates positional coordinates of a reconstructed image area to which the slice data is to be projected, based on the moved distance and tilt of the slice data which have been calculated, and generates reconstructed image data. The generated reconstructed image data is stored in the memory.
