Determining the rectum distance in the colon involves recording at least two image data records for different orientations of patient and determining distance from synopsis of at least two three-dimensional image data records

摘要

The method involves processing three-dimensional image data records to determine the distance between a selected point, preferably a lesion (L), and the rectum (R). At least two image data records are recorded for different orientations of the patient and the distance (T s) is determined from a synopsis of the at least two three-dimensional image data records.
