    Abstract: Provided is a computer-implemented method for assessing a medical image of an object imaged with an X-ray system. The method proposes to generate one or more positioning data sets, which differ in at least one positioning parameter. The X-ray system images medical images of the object with the one or more positioning data sets. The obtained medical images were assessed by measuring a quality measure in the medical images and comparing the measured quality measures with an evaluation criterion. A positive assessed medical image with the corresponding positioning data is then provided for further processing.

    Abstract: Disclosed is i.a. a computer-implemented method of determining a similarity between medical images which encompasses determining patches, i.e. subsets, of a medical image which is newly input to a data storage and of medical images which has been previously stored, analysing the patches for similar image features in a dimensionality-reduced reference system used for defining the image features, computing a distance between the image features in the dimensionality-reduced reference system, and based on the result of comparing the distances calculated for the newly input image and the previously stored medical images, determining whether the medical images are similar and for example originate from the same patient. Artificial intelligence is used to generate the dimensionality-reduced representation of the image features, i.e. to encode the medical images for further processing by the methods and the system disclosed herein.
