Abstract

A system for determining and visualizing damage to an anatomical joint of a patient. The system is to: obtain a three dimensional image representation of an anatomical joint which is based on a medical image stack; determine damage to an anatomical structure in the anatomical joint by analyzing the medical image stack; mark damage to the anatomical structures in the obtained three dimensional image representation; obtain a 3D model based on the three dimensional image representation; and create a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI may comprise: functionality to visualize and enable manipulation of the at least one 3D model; functionality to enable removal of the visualization of the anatomical structure from the 3D model; functionality to visualize and enable browsing of the medical image stack; and functionality to visualize the position of the medical image that is currently visualized.
