METHOD, AN APPARATUS, A SYSTEM AND A COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR TRANSFERRING SCAN GEOMETRY BETWEEN SUBSEQUENT SCANS
First Claim
1. A method for transferring scan geometry from a first scan to a second scan for similar regions, the method comprising the steps of:
- loading an overview scan of an object comprising a first region and a second region;
identifying the first region and the second region in the overview scan;
determining first scan geometry corresponding to the first region;
transferring the first scan geometry into the second scan geometry corresponding to the second region using information on geometrical correspondence between the first region and the second region.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method, an apparatus and a computer program for transferring scan geometry between a first region and a second region, similar to the first region. In the method according to the invention the first region and the second region are being identified (4), preferably in the overview image, followed by determination (6) of the first scan geometry corresponding to the first region. Then, the first scan geometry is being transferred into the second scan geometry corresponding to the second region, whereby information on geometrical correspondence between the first region and the second region is used. Preferably, the step of transferring comprises establishing corresponding mappings between similar regions and their respective scan geometries.
