Abstract:
1. Method for processing of a three-dimensional image data set, wherein (a) The three-dimensional image data set is converted to at least two different data representations for image reproduction; (b) the at least two different data representations are reproduced; (c) one image section that is shown in one of the data representations is markable; (d) for the at least one other data representation the relative position of the marked image section is calculated; (e) the relative position of the marked image section is shown in the at least one other data representation; wherein the at least one data representation is a sectional view and the at least one other data representation is a three-dimensional view; wherein the at least one sectional view comprises an axial view and a frontal view and a sagittal view and an oblique view; wherein the at least one three-dimensional view comprises a wall view and an intraluminal view; wherein the three-dimensional image data set of a hose-shaped body is processed; and wherein the at least one of the data representations is a wall view with a line of sight that is parallel or anti-parallel to the curvature vector at the maximum curvature of the mid-line of the hose-shaped body.
