1. A method for an imaging system, comprising:
generating a first set of multi-dimensional imaging data via a first device;
generating a second set of data along at least one dimension via a second device; and
generating a field-of-view (FOV) preview based on a compilation of the first set of data and the second set of data,
wherein the first device and the second device are mounted adjacent to a detector of the imaging system, aimed downwards towards a patient along a same side of the detector along an axial plane, the axial plane aligned perpendicular to a length of the patient arranged prone below the detector and wherein the patient is positioned between the detector and an x-ray source.
