Zusammenfassung:The invention relates to detecting anatomical abnormalities in medical images. In order to detect anatomical abnormalities, a computer-implemented method (100) and system are disclosed that detect 2D contours (130) of anatomical features in a medical image and compares these contours with predicted 2D contours (140) based on a 3D reference model in order to detect (150) anatomical abnormalities. This approach may improve accuracy of anatomical abnormality detection, thereby cutting time in a medical facility and potentially improving operator experiences and patient outcomes.
