Recovering lost MBR

[Edgar Marsalla]

I have a laptop that was running Vista 64bit Enterprise fine. It's disk is
also protected by bitlocker. It is now in a state where none of the recovery
console options seems able to recognize the drive. From a command line
bootrec.exe I can see the disk and it's original partitions of proper sizes.
However they are 'hidden' and there are no visible volumes. Is there any
good way to restore the information that would make the disk recoverable?
