Abstract
The invention relates to a method () of adapting a geometric model to an image data comprising determining a first partial transformation for mapping a first part of the geometric model into the image data and a second partial transformation for mapping a second part of the geometric model into the image data. By determining the first partial transformation of the first part of the geometric model and the second partial transformation of the second part of the geometric model, the geometric model can assume more shapes and therefore can be more accurately adapted to an object comprised in the image data.
