1. A method of processing component images, the method comprising: accessing a first component image, the first component image being a spectral component image of at least an object and corresponding to a first spectral component, the object occupying a first portion of the first component image; accessing a second component image, the second component image being a spectral component image of at least the object and corresponding to a second spectral component that is different than the first spectral component, the object occupying a second portion of the second component image; transforming at least a portion of the second component image to generate a transformed version of the second component image, wherein the transformed version of the second component image is a spectral component image of at least the object and corresponding to the second spectral component, wherein the object occupies a third portion of the transformed version of the second component image; aligning the transformed version of the second component image and the first component image; and combining the first component image and the transformed version of the second component image into a composite image of at least the object.
