There is proposed a mechanism for determining whether or not an imaging probe, such as an ultrasound imaging probe, is at a desired orientation and/or position with respect to an anatomical structure. Image data of the imaging probe is processed to generate a 3D landmark model that contains anatomical landmarks of the anatomical structure. The 3D landmark model is then processed to determine whether or not the imaging probe is at the desired orientation and/or position.

Guided acquisition of a 3D representation of an anatomical structure

There is proposed a mechanism for generating and displaying a 3D representation of an anatomical structure of an individual. Image data of the anatomical structure is obtained and processed to obtain 2D images or image sequences corresponding to predetermined views of the anatomical structure. Anatomical landmarks are identified in the 2D images or image sequences and used to determine a 3D landmark model of the anatomical 5 structure. The 3D landmark model is used to render and display a 3D representation of the anatomical structure.
