Abstract

Disclosed is a computer-implemented medical data processing method for determining a stimulated nerve fibre disposed in an anatomical body part of a patient's body, the method comprising executing, on at least one processor of at least one computer, steps of: a) acquiring, at the at least one processor, medical image data describing a digital image of the anatomical body part, wherein the anatomical body part contains at least one nerve fibre extending in a direction between an internal part of the anatomical body part and a substantially exterior part of the anatomical body part; b) acquiring, at the at least one processor, atlas data describing an image-based model of the anatomical body part including a representation of the at least one nerve fibre; c) determining, by the at least one processor and based on the medical image data and the atlas data, exterior part data describing an association between the exterior part and the nerve fibre; d) acquiring, at the at least one processor, stimulation signal data describing a predetermined applied stimulation signal applied to, based on the exterior part data, the exterior part; e) acquiring, at the at least one processor, check signal data describing an emitted stimulation signal emitted by the nerve fibre; f) determining, by the at least one processor and based on the stimulation signal data and the check signal data, correspondence measure data describing a measure of correspondence between the applied stimulation signal and the emitted stimulation signal.
