Abstract
An image processing apparatus comprises a data receiving unit configured to receive medical imaging data and a registration unit configured to obtain a registration of the medical imaging data with model-based virtual anatomy data by determining a transformation between a coordinate space of the medical imaging data and a coordinate space of the virtual anatomy data based on the locations of anatomical landmarks in the medical imaging data and the locations of corresponding anatomical landmarks in the virtual anatomy data.
