Abstract
A framework for visualization is described herein. In accordance with one implementation, one or more structures of interest are localized in a three-dimensional image. A position of an anatomical label may be determined using a positioning technique that is selected according to a view type of a visualization plane through the image, wherein the position of the anatomical label is outside the one or more structures of interest. The anatomical label may then be displayed at the determined position in the visualization plane.
