Classification: CPC A  G | IPC A  G

Claim 0:
1. A computer-implemented method of adapting a biomechanical model of an anatomical body part of a patient to a current status of the patient, the method comprising:
acquiring initial biomechanical model data which describes an initial biomechanical model of the anatomical body part;
acquiring workflow step data which describes a current step of a workflow of a procedure to be carried out on the patient;
determining status change data based on the workflow step data and the initial biomechanical model data, wherein the status change data describes a change in the patient's status, the change in the patient's status being a change in at least one of a position or a geometry of the patient's body;
acquiring model adaptation data which describes an association between the change in the patient's status and an adaptation to be applied to the initial biomechanical model;
determining adapted biomechanical model data based on the initial biomechanical model data and the status change data and the model adaptation data, wherein the adapted biomechanical model data describes an adapted biomechanical model which is determined by applying the adaptation to the initial biomechanical model; and
the method further including
determining imaging control data based on the status change data, wherein the imaging control data describes a command to be issued to a medical imaging device for taking an image of at least part of the anatomical body part.
