Abstract

The invention relates to a method for imaging a three-dimensional object to be examined. According to said method, a three-dimensional parameterized area is determined which is in conformity with an anatomic structure of the three-dimensional object to be examined. The three-dimensional parameterized area is imaged onto a two-dimensional parameterized area. The three-dimensional object to be examined is represented by imaging pixels that are associated with the three-dimensional parameterized area onto the two-dimensional parameterized area. The invention further relates to a method for determining a camera position in a three-dimensional image recording of an object to be examined. The invention also relates to a method for representing a section of an object to be examined. The invention finally relates to a device for imaging a three-dimensional object to be examined.
