Abstract
A method for merging a three-dimensional analysis data record of a tissue sample of a patient with a three-dimensional image data record of the patient indicating, prior to removal, the removal area of the tissue sample. The method includes registering a three-dimensional intermediate data record of the three-dimensional analysis data record. The registering includes transforming analysis data of the three-dimensional analysis data record into intermediate data, corresponding to image data recorded with a modality with which the three-dimensional image data record has been recorded and including a resolution reduced, to determine the three-dimensional intermediate data record corresponding, in terms of resolution, to the image data record; and registering the three-dimensional intermediate data record with the three-dimensional image data record. Finally, the method includes merging the three-dimensional analysis data record and the three-dimensional image data record using a registration rule obtained during the registering of the three-dimensional intermediate data record.
