Abstract

A computer-implemented method of generating a model that models a class of objects. The method comprises, for each of a plurality of objects of the class of objects, receiving a first two-dimensional image of the object and first acquisition data, receiving a second two-dimensional image of the object and second acquisition data and receiving data indicating a plurality of points of interest within the object. The first and second two-dimensional images are combined based upon the first and second acquisition data to generate three-dimensional image data, the three-dimensional image data including data based upon the data indicating a plurality of points of interest and the generated three-dimensional image data for each of the objects of the class of objects is processed to generate the model.
