A method is disclosed for determining at least one contour in at least one image represented by a pixel array, a certain pixel value which represents a color hue or gray level being assigned to each pixel of the pixel array. The method includes stipulation of at least two contour reference points, wherein each contour reference point corresponds to a pixel of the pixel array, and mapping of the pixel array onto a grid, wherein the grid nodes represent the pixels of the pixel array, and the grid lines connect the grid nodes to one another. The method further includes assignment of a certain grid-line section value to each grid-line section between two grid nodes and determination of the respective sum of all the grid-line section values for multiple grid-line paths between the contour reference points. Finally, the method includes determination of the particular grid-line path, the sum of whose associated grid-line section values assumes a minimum, wherein the grid-line path determined represents the contour to be determined.
