Abstract

A method for the automatic generation of synthetic projections of an examination object from at least one three-dimensional data set acquired by way of a medical imaging system. The three-dimensional data set is used as a basis for determining position information relating to the arrangement of structures of the examination object and at least one synthetic projection based on the position information. We also describe a projection-image-ascertaining facility for the automatic generation of synthetic projections and a computer program product for executing the method.
