1. A method comprising: identifying, by a processor, a curved structure in three-dimensional medical image data based at least in part on image detection techniques; selecting, by the processor, a plane in the three-dimensional medical image data based at least in part on the identified curved structure; automatically defining, by the processor, a curved image slice in the selected plane based at least in part on the identified curved structure and a determined slice thickness; generating, by the processor, a rendered image of the defined curved image slice having the determined slice thickness; and presenting, at a display system, the rendered image of the defined curved image slice having the determined slice thickness.
