Abstract:
A method and a registration device for sampling relevant surface points of a subject for a medical navigation system is presented. From a plurality of surface points of the subject, relevant surface points are accepted and non-relevant surface points are discarded. The method allows the surface geometry acquisition of a subject to be improved. For this purpose, additional information of the surface points is acquired and assigned to the respective surface point for validating each surface point.
