1. A device for providing a basis for registering a three-dimensional model of an anatomical region with two-dimensional projection images, comprising:

  • a 3D imaging system (10) for deriving a three-dimensional model of an anatomical region at a phase of a periodic signal;

    a 2D imaging system (11) for deriving two-dimensional projection images of a region which overlaps with the anatomical region reconstructed by the 3D imaging system;

    a pre-selector (15) for selecting a subset of projection images out of the derived two-dimensional projection images, which are closest to the phase; and

    a selector (16) for selecting a reference image for the registration from the subset of pre-selected projection images by choosing the projection image with the most contrast.
