Zusammenfassung:	The invention relates to positioning a volume to be imaged for computed tomography imaging. According to the invention, at least two optical cameras are used for taking a photo or for live imaging an anatomy from different directions. A volume positioning indicator the size of which is adjustable is shown in connection with these images, the volume positioning indicator indicating location of the volume within the area imaged by the cameras to get imaged by the computed tomography imaging apparatus.
