Abstract
The disclosure relates to a medical imaging device, a method for supporting medical personnel, a corresponding computer program product, and a corresponding computer-readable storage medium. In the method, a 3D data record is received from a first imaging modality and image data of an examination object is received from a second imaging modality. Different tissue regions of the same organ are imaged with different imaging properties at least under the second imaging modality. A tissue boundary is detected between the tissue regions in the image data. For registration of the image data with the 3D data record, the tissue boundary is aligned at a corresponding tissue boundary in the 3D data record. In addition, or alternatively, based on the tissue boundary, an automatic movement compensation takes place of a movement of the examination object which has occurred during the generation of the image data.
