Abstract

The invention relates to method and apparatus for reconstructing a three-dimensional representation of a target volume inside an animal or human body. Hereto, according to the method step ii) is preceded by the steps of: Accordingly, with these features an improved reconstructing method is obtained, wherein an optimal set of two-dimensional image projections is obtained and proposed, based on which a correct three-dimensional contour image of said target volume is being reconstructed. Thus with this correct three-dimensional contour image the diagnostician is capable of performing a more accurate diagnosis and subsequent treatment of the patient, which in turn is subjected to a less lengthy imaging treatment session, which is beneficial in terms of radiation exposure time, discomfort, etc.
