  • Method for deformation correction
    Patent number: 11657519
    Abstract: A method for deformation correction includes receiving a preoperative 3D image data set from an examination region of an examination object, generating a segmented 3D image data set by segmenting an anatomical structure in the preoperative 3D image data set, and acquiring image data from the examination region. A medical object is arranged in the examination region. The medical object is identified in the image data, and the segmented 3D image data set is registered with the image data. An overlay data set is generated and displayed based on the segmented 3D image data set and the image data. A position of a deviation between the image data and the segmented 3D image data set is defined, and a deformation rule is determined for the reduction of the deviation between the image data and the segmented 3D image data set. The corrected overlay data set is generated and provided.
