    摘要: In a method, a device and a system as well as a modality and a computer program product for integration of a data object into a medical data set, the data object and the medical data set are associated with a patient examination. The medical data set is formatted according to a DICOM standard. The data object is formatted according to a standard other than the DICOM standard. The data object is integrated into the medical data set via at least one shadow group object and a running and/or planned process in connection with the patient examination can be controlled dependent on the integrated data object.
