Abstract:
The invention relates to tracking motion of a patient's jaw, wherein motion of a tracking item which represents motion of the jaw is followed by at least one camera arranged to a medical x-ray imaging apparatus and wherein the motion detected by the at least one camera is applied on a digital model depicting hard tissue of the jaw. The moving digital model of the hard tissue of the jaw thus generated is shown on a display to visualize movement of the hard tissue.

Claim (Index 1):
Arrangement for tracking motion of a person's jaw, the arrangement comprising:\n at least one camera configured to photograph movement of tracking items, the tracking items comprising reference objects and being attached to a person's lower jaw and to a person's upper jaw or to a part of the person's anatomy which is in a stationary connection with the upper jaw; a control system including a first subsystem for controlling operations of said at least one camera to photograph said movement of the tracking items, and a second subsystem including image information processing means to detect projections and resolve poses of the tracking item in the images captured by said at least one camera and to apply this information to a digital model depicting hard tissue of at least the lower jaw and to generate a moving digital model to be shown on a display which visualizes movement of the hard tissue of the lower jaw according to said photographed movement of the reference objects; wherein the arrangement further comprises\n a medical x-ray imaging apparatus including an x-ray source and an x-ray image detector and \n the control system further comprises a third subsystem, the third subsystem including control functions relating to controlling operations of said medical x-ray imaging apparatus to acquire cranial x-ray image information and for generating a CT reconstruction of a cranial anatomy, characterized in that \n the control system is configured to visualize said movement of the digital model generated by said second subsystem essentially simultaneously while said first subsystem operates said at least one camera to photograph the movement of the reference objects.
