A system and method for verifying the registration of a fluoroscopy image,
wherein an artificial landmark array is introduced into a radiation path
of a fluoroscopy apparatus, the landmark array being trackable by a
computer assisted, medical navigation system. A fluoroscopy recording is
produced with the aid of the fluoroscopy apparatus, and a spatial
position of the artificial landmark array at the time the fluoroscopy
recording is produced is detected and stored. The fluoroscopy recording
is registered onto previously acquired body image data of the navigation
system using marking points mapped on the fluoroscopy recording, wherein
the marking points are maps of markings on the radiation source.
Verification is based on a correspondence between an image shadow of the
artificial landmark array on the fluoroscopy recording and a position of
the landmark array at the time the recording was produced.
