1. A method for dynamically generating an adaptive multi-resolution image, the method comprising: displaying a reference image of an imaging subject with a verification image of the imaging subject in an on-screen graphical display; receiving a user input indicative of a direction within a display of the reference image; in response to receiving the user input indicative of the direction, dynamically selecting an algorithm from a plurality of algorithms based on the direction indicated by the user input; calculating a projection of the imaging subject at a first resolution; performing edge detection on the projection of the imaging subject to determine a plurality of edges; calculating a projection of a plurality of portions around the plurality of edges at a second resolution that is greater than the first resolution; generating an adaptive multi-resolution image of the imaging subject with the selected algorithm by incorporating the projection of the plurality of portions around the plurality of edges in the projection of the imaging subject; and replacing the reference image with the adaptive multi-resolution image in the on-screen graphical display.
