摘要
A method and an apparatus are disclosed for automatically detecting salient features in medical image data of a body area of a patient. In an embodiment of the method, a number of image data records of the body area that are to be examined for salient features are provided and are automatically examined on an image computer with the aid of a detection algorithm to detect salient features in the image data records. The image data records are registered in the case of an embodiment of the present method to obtain transformations with the aid of which image regions in one of the image data records are assigned to corresponding image regions in other ones of the image data records that represent the same site of the body area. Upon the detection of a salient feature in one of the image data records, the image region in the other image data records that corresponds to the same site of the body area is checked for the presence of a salient feature, or is visualized to the user, this being done automatically on the basis of the transformations or upon input from a user. An embodiment of the present method and the associated apparatus substantially reduce for the user the time outlay in automatically detecting salient features in medical image data.
