Abstract
The present invention involves positionally identifying several anatomical structures of interest of a patient's anatomy on images which have been acquired at different points of time. For each anatomical structure a separate image fusion transformation between these images is performed. For at least one of the image fusion transformations it is then determined whether this transformation is within a predetermined threshold, wherein for this determination, at least one further image fusion transformation of another anatomical structure is taken into account.
