1. A mechanical ventilation device comprising at least one electronic controller configured to:
receive images of lungs of a patient undergoing mechanical ventilation therapy with a mechanical ventilator, the images being acquired over time and having timestamps;
process the images to generate timeline images at corresponding discrete time points;
display a scrollable timeline of the timeline images in a time window on a display device; and
receive a user input from a user to dynamically adjust the time window; wherein the displayed scrollable timeline further includes a selectable option to receive a user input to select a stiffness degree of an image registration between adjacent images in the timeline.
