The present embodiments are in the fields of medical imaging and automation and information technology. The present embodiments relate to a calculation method for result data during the assignment of bone fragments in the operative environment.
With complex bone fractures, one medical task consists of identifying the bone fragments and assigning the bone fragments to one another so that the bone may be reconstructed as well as possible within the framework of a subsequent operation. To do this, a number of measures, which have previously been performed manually or were not possible, are to be taken in advance.
A preparatory measure for an operative intervention includes finding an optimum and correct positioning for the individual bone fragments. This task may be understood as searching for a solution to a positioning problem of individual parts.
