Patent attributes
An apparatus comprises processing circuitry configured to: obtain medical imaging data that is representative of an anatomical region of a subject, the anatomical region comprising at least one anatomical feature of interest; obtain a template that is representative of a desired view of the at least one anatomical feature of interest; register the medical imaging data and reference anatomical data to obtain a distribution of registration probability with respect to at least one registration parameter; and perform a selection process comprising: obtaining a plurality of transforms, each having an associated registration; for each of the plurality of transforms: generating a respective view of the at least one anatomical feature of interest based on said transform; and determining a template matching probability that represents a similarity of the generated view to the template; and selecting at least one of the transforms and/or at least one of the views based on a combination of at least one of the registration probabilities with at least one of the template matching probabilities.
