Technique For Processing Medical Image Data Of A Patient's Body

Abstract: a method, computer program and system for processing medical image data of a patient's body are provided. medical image data including two 2d images is obtained, each depicting two common anatomical elements of the patient's body from a known viewing direction, the known viewing direction differing between the 2d images. a first spatial pattern indicative of first 3d positions of the common anatomical elements is determined. a second spatial pattern indicative of second 3d positions of a plurality of anatomical elements of the patient's body, said plurality of anatomical elements comprising the two common anatomical elements, is obtained. a mapping is determined between the first spatial pattern and the second spatial pattern to associate at least one of the first three-dimensional positions with at least one of the second three-dimensional positions.
