Abstract

Disclosed is a computer-implemented method of overlaying a representation of a medical instrument over a two-dimensional medical image. It finds at least one feature point along a detection line which is defined relative to the medical instrument in the medical image, calculates a geometrical quantity based on this feature point and adds the geometrical quantity to the two-dimensional medical image.
