A computer-implemented medical method of determining a consensus plane usable for imaging an anatomical body part with a medical imaging device, the method comprising the following steps: a) patient image data is acquired which describes an anatomical body part of a patient's body; b) planned trajectory data is acquired which describes an orientation of a longitudinal axis of an elongate medical device (A, B) and a position of the medical device (A, B) relative to the anatomical body part; c) initial imaging plane data of a medical imaging device is determined based on the planned trajectory data, wherein the initial imaging plane data describes a relative orientation between the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the elongate medical device (A, B) and an imaging plane of a medical imaging device useable for simultaneously imaging the medical device (A, B) and the anatomical body part; d) imaging device constraint data is acquired which describes a plurality of possible relative orientations between the imaging plane of the medical imaging device and an orientation of the longitudinal axis of the elongate medical device (A, B) or the anatomical body part; e) orientation condition data is acquired which describes a predetermined condition to be met by the relative orientation between the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the elongate medical device (A, B) and the imaging plane of the medical imaging device; f) consensus plane data is determined based on the imaging device constraint data and the initial imaging plane data and the orientation condition data, wherein the consensus plane data defines a relative orientation between the imaging plane of the medical imaging device and the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the medical device (A, B), which orientation is to be applied for imaging the anatomical body part and the medical device (A, B) with the medical imaging device, wherein the imaging plane of the medical imaging device is parallel to the consensus plane when the imaging plane is oriented according to the predetermined condition, characterized in that g) avoidance region position data is acquired describing the position of an avoidance region being an anatomical region in the anatomical body part, and wherein the consensus plane data is determined further based on the avoidance region position data, wherein the avoidance region is an anatomical region which should be avoided by the imaging radiation. a) patient image data is acquired which describes an anatomical body part of a patient's body; b) planned trajectory data is acquired which describes an orientation of a longitudinal axis of an elongate medical device (A, B) and a position of the medical device (A, B) relative to the anatomical body part; c) initial imaging plane data of a medical imaging device is determined based on the planned trajectory data, wherein the initial imaging plane data describes a relative orientation between the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the elongate medical device (A, B) and an imaging plane of a medical imaging device useable for simultaneously imaging the medical device (A, B) and the anatomical body part; d) imaging device constraint data is acquired which describes a plurality of possible relative orientations between the imaging plane of the medical imaging device and an orientation of the longitudinal axis of the elongate medical device (A, B) or the anatomical body part; e) orientation condition data is acquired which describes a predetermined condition to be met by the relative orientation between the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the elongate medical device (A, B) and the imaging plane of the medical imaging device; f) consensus plane data is determined based on the imaging device constraint data and the initial imaging plane data and the orientation condition data, wherein the consensus plane data defines a relative orientation between the imaging plane of the medical imaging device and the orientation of the longitudinal axis of the medical device (A, B), which orientation is to be applied for imaging the anatomical body part and the medical device (A, B) with the medical imaging device, wherein the imaging plane of the medical imaging device is parallel to the consensus plane when the imaging plane is oriented according to the predetermined condition,
