Abstract
Techniques for linking geometry extracted from one or more medical images, the geometry including a plurality of geometric objects each having parameter values including at least one value for location and at least one value for direction/orientation, the plurality of geometric objects comprising a target geometric object and at least two candidate geometric objects, the techniques include: (A) comparing parameter values of the target geometric object with parameter values of the at least two candidate geometric objects, (B) selecting one of the at least two candidate geometric objects to link to the target geometric object based, at least in part, on the comparison; and (C) linking the to target geometric object with the selected candidate geometric object.
