Abstract
A concept for facilitating a user interface for interacting with interventional medical devices depicted in an image. The positions of one or more features of at least one interventional medical device are identified. A size and shape of an interactive zone is determined for each feature, where an interactive zone (when provided on a display of a user interface) facilitates interaction with the corresponding feature and/or interventional medical device. The size of the interactive zone is chosen to be larger than the size of the feature. A position for the interactive zone is selected based on the position/position of the corresponding feature in the image. Zone information is then output to define the size, shape and position of the interactive zones with respect to the image.
