A method is for determining at least one object feature of an object at least partially depicted by an object image. A respective preliminary feature for each object feature and at least one acquisition feature are determined from the object image. The preliminary feature depends on the object feature and on an imaging device used to acquire the object image and/or at least one imaging parameter used for acquiring and/or reconstructing the object image and/or an additional feature of the object. The acquisition feature depends on the imaging device and/or the imaging parameter and/or the additional feature of the object. A correction algorithm determines the object feature from the preliminary feature and the acquisition feature. The acquisition feature is determined by a respective determination algorithm that is selected and/or parametrized from a group of candidate algorithms, depending on multiple reference images.

A method for interactively generating a geometric model of a volume object on the basis of three-dimensional image data of an examination region of interest of an examination subject is described. According to an embodiment, a representation of the volume object is determined on the basis of three-dimensional image data and a two-dimensional representation is determined on the basis of the determined representation using a preferably non-linear planar reformation of the three-dimensional object. Subsequently, boundary indicators which define the surface profile of the volume object are edited in the two-dimensional representation. Following the editing, a three-dimensional representation of the edited boundary indicators is generated by back-transforming the edited boundary indicators into three-dimensional space. Finally, a model-based representation of the volume object is generated in three-dimensional space on the basis of the edited boundary indicators. A volume object modeling device is also described. In addition, a medical imaging device is described.

A method and a device are disclosed for the perspective representation, via an output image, of at least one virtual scene component arranged within a real scene. In the method, depth image data of the real scene is captured from a first perspective via a depth image sensor, and 2D image data of the real scene is captured from a second perspective via a 2D camera. Further, a virtual three-dimensional scene model of the real scene is created with reference to depth information from the depth image data, and at least one virtual scene component is inserted into the three-dimensional virtual model. Finally, an output image is generated by way of perspective projection of the 2D image data corresponding to the second perspective onto the virtual three-dimensional scene model comprising the virtual scene component.

A method of assigning first localization data of a breast of a patient derived from first image data of the breast, the first image data being the result of a first radiological data acquisition process, to second localization data of the same breast derived from second image data, the second image data being the result of a second radiological data acquisition process, or vice versa. Thereby, the first localization data are assigned to the second localization data by intermediately mapping them into breast model data representing a patient-specific breast shape of the patient and then onto the second image data&#x2014;or vice versa, thereby deriving assignment data. An assignment system performs the above-described method.
