Disclosed is a computer-implemented method of overlaying a representation of a medical instrument over a two-dimensional medical image. It finds at least one feature point along a detection line which is defined relative to the medical instrument in the medical image, calculates a geometrical quantity based on this feature point and adds the geometrical quantity to the two-dimensional medical image.

A marker system and method are provided that can determine a shape and an axial location of a rotationally symmetrical hole in an instrument having a plurality of instrument markers.

Marker system for determining the diameter and axial location of a hole in an instrument

A method for the superimposed depiction, on at least one screen, of overlapping recordings of a region to be imaged which is recorded in at least two recording steps, wherein multiple markers are fixedly provided in the region to be imaged, such that at least two recordings can be spatially produced, offset with respect to the markers, using an x-ray apparatus, wherein the recordings are registered relative to the marker, and the image data of accordingly registered recordings is mutually oriented by means of a common imaging protocol and depicted on the at least one screen in a superimposed way.

Displaying recordings in a superimposed or oriented way

A medical x-ray detection device includes an x-ray detector operable to detect the presence of x-ray radiation in a medical environment, and a signal emitter operatively coupled to said x-ray detector. The signal emitter includes at least one active light-emitting signal device, wherein the signal emitter is operative to emit a signal corresponding to the presence of x-ray radiation.
