A method is disclosed in this publication for modeling different internal
structures of a head, such as different parts of the brain, the method
comprising the step of determining the location of the internal
structures, such as the different cerebral parts, of at least one first
head in a three-dimensional space by techniques such as magnetic
resonance imaging or computer-aided tomography. According to the
invention, the external dimensions of at least one second head are
determined, and the location data of the internal structures of the first
head are scaled in a three-dimensional space to correlate with the
external dimensions of the second head, whereby the location data of the
internal structures of the second head also become modeled without the
need for anatomical images of the second head.
