摘要： A method is disclosed for producing a computed tomography display of tissue structures by applying a contrast medium. A contrast medium is applied to a patient for better visualization of the tissue structure to be examined. An X-ray scan is performed during the presence of the one contrast medium, and computed tomography 2- or 3-dimensional pictures are subsequently reconstructed from the X-ray scan data obtained. In the method, absorption data are measured for at least two different energy spectra, a computed tomography intermediate image is reconstructed per energy spectrum, and the distribution of the one contrast medium in the tissue is determined from the different energy-specific absorption behavior between tissue and contrast medium.

摘要： A method is for visually displaying quantitative information in medical imaging data records, in which an image data record and/or one or more additional data records, in which each image element of the image data record has one or more associated values as quantitative information, are obtained from one or more measurement data records after one or more processing steps. The image data record and/or the one or more additional data records is/are used to calculate a significance function which, for each image element in a prescribable image region, represents a degree of similarity between the one or more values associated with the image element and a prescribable value or a prescribable value combination. Further, the significance function is graphically displayed on an image reproduction unit. The present method can be used for visually displaying quantitative information contained in medical imaging data records easily and clearly.

摘要： A tomography appliance and method for a tomography appliance make it possible to calculate, in a simple and efficient manner, detector-element-related coefficients of an intensity function dependent on the detector output signal and to calculate the X-ray-emitter-related coefficients of an intensity function dependent on an X-ray emitter input value. This is done on the basis of measured detector output signals and at least one X-ray emitter input value, such that the intensity which acts precisely on the respective detector element can be determined from X-ray radiation originating from the X-ray emitter.

摘要： A method and a device are proposed for determining the type of fluid in a fluid mass in an object. X-ray attenuation data is supplied from one or a plurality of X-ray recordings of an object area including the fluid mass in the object, which were acquired with at least two different X-ray spectra or detector weightings. The X-ray attenuation data is used to determine values for effective atomic number and density for the fluid mass and average these to obtain a mean value for effective atomic number and density for the fluid mass. Comparison data is also supplied, which indicates fluctuation ranges for combinations of effective atomic number and density for different types of fluid. The mean values for effective atomic number and density of the fluid mass are compared with the comparison data to determine the fluctuation range and thereby the type of fluid, into which the two mean values fall. The method and associated device can be used to determine the type of fluid in a fluid mass in an object in a reliable and unambiguous manner.

摘要： A method is proposed for the spatially-resolved determination of the concentration of n elements and/or element combinations in an object to be examined that includes these elements and/or element combinations. In the method, use is made of an X-ray installation to record a number of digital X-ray images of at least one region of the object to be examined with the aid of m≧n different spectral distributions of the X-radiation S(E) and/or of the detector sensitivity D(E), in order to obtain m attenuation values for each pixel representing the same location in the X-ray images. The concentrations of the n elements and/or element combinations are then calculated for at least one pixel from the respective m attenuation values while taking account of known spectral absorption spectra of the n elements and/or element combinations and of the m different spectral distributions of the X-radiation and/or of the detector sensitivity.

摘要： A radiation detector and a method are for synchronized radiation detection. The radiation detector has a two-dimensional arrangement of radiation sensors using APS technology, and evaluation electronics with an input for a synchronization signal. The evaluation electronics have two or more free-running current/frequency converters for conversion of analog signals from the radiation sensors to digital signals. A correction unit is also provided for correction of errors in the digital signals which are caused by time discrepancies in a nominal time period, which is predetermined by the synchronization signal, for detection of the radiation from conversion events of the free-running current/frequency converters. The radiation detector can be produced at low cost, and allows simplified and scalable modular construction.

摘要： In a method and a pulse sequence determination device to determine a pulse sequence for a magnetic resonance system, control protocol parameter values are initially acquired. A determination of k-space trajectory node points within k-space then takes place in a processor on the basis of the control protocol parameter values. The determination of the pulse sequence then takes place on the basis of the k-space trajectory node points. A method for operating a magnetic resonance system uses such a pulse sequence, and a magnetic resonance system embodies such a pulse sequence determination device.
