Abstract:
The system (10) comprises an input (2) for accessing the suitable input data. The core of the system (10) is formed by a processor (4) which is arranged to operate the components of the system (10), it being the input (2), a computing unit (5), a working memory (6). The computing unit (5) preferably comprises a suitable number of executable subroutines (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d, 5e, and 5f) to enable a constructing of a geometric model of the movable body based on the results of the segmentation step, finding a spatial correspondence between the first and second image dataset, mapping the texture image dataset on geometric model, fusing the geometric model and the mapped texture image dataset. The apparatus (10) according to the invention further comprises a coder (7) arranged to code the determined region of interest in accordance to a pre-selected criterion. The criterion may be selectable from a list of valid criteria, stored in a file (7a). Preferably, the coder (7), the computing unit (5) and the processor (4) are operable by a computer program (3), preferably stored in memory (8). An output (9) is used for outputting the results of the processing, like fused image data representing the textured, preferably animated geometric model of the movable body. The invention further relates to a method for integration of medical diagnostic information and a geometric model of a movable body and to a computer program.
