When I use the Markup function in the Slicer to label a point and export the coordinates as json, the red box and coordinate value are saved.

I found that the coordinates are in the LPS coordinate system. **However, I need the coordinates of the yellow box. Can anyone tell me how to export those coordinates or how I can convert the LPS coordinates to yellow box coordinates?**
