Abstract:
1. A method of representing a predeterminable region in multidimensional data sets, wherein data sets comprise in particular three- or four-dimensional image data of an object to be examined, wherein the image data are generated via one or more images of the object, and wherein at least one in particular two-dimensional section (S) is made through the predeterminable region and displayed on a display, wherein the section (S) is defined by at least one vector plane (E 1 , E 2 ), which lies in the multidimensional data set, the at least one vector plane (E 1 , E 2 ) is fixed via a vector, and the vector is fixed in the multidimensional data set and/or on in particular two-dimensional planes of section (S 1 , S 2 ) through the multidimensional data set, and wherein the vector is a direction vector which has a specifiable orientation and a specifiable length spanning the predeterminable region, the vector being adapted to the multidimensional data set, wherein the vector is fixed on a first two-dimensional plane of section (S 1 ) by specifying the orientation and length, and the vector so fixed is copied on to a second plane of section (S 2 ), preferably non-parallel to the first plane of section (S 1 ), and correctable thereon.
