    摘要: A data set describing a vascular system in three dimensions is pre-specified to a computer. A section of the vascular system is selected. With the aid of the data set describing the vascular system in three dimensions, the computer calculates a length of the selected section. A sequence of images of the vascular system is pre-specified to the computer, wherein a time is assigned to each image. One image respectively of the sequence is defined as a start image and as a stop image. With the aid of the length of the selected section and the times assigned to the start image and the stop image, the computer determines a velocity and outputs the velocity together with the selected section to a user. The operating method can be integrated in particular into the clinical workflow.

    摘要: A controller of an image-generating medical engineering assembly receives a selection of an image valuation method from a user. It subsequently automatically adjusts selection-specific, positioning-independent operating parameters of the recording arrangement and or provides the user with instructions for adjusting the positioning-independent operating parameters. In response to a user's start input the controller captures by means of a recording arrangement of the image-generating medical engineering assembly a sequence of successive two-dimensional images of an iteratively moving object being examined and capturing instants thereof as well as a phase signal of the object being examined and archives the sequence of images, capturing instants and the phase signal.

    摘要: A trigger device feeds to a control device for a medical imaging system a number of trigger pulses which all correspond to a predetermined phase angle of an object, e.g. of a heart which is the same for all trigger pulses. The control device activates an image recording device at least on the basis of a few of the trigger pulses so that the image recording device records a sequence of images of the object in each case, as from a start time relative to the initiating trigger pulse and ends the recording of the sequence at a stop time, so that the images (Bk) of this sequence have predetermined time offsets to the initiating trigger pulse. The control device determines the stop time such that it lies before a start time which is determined on the basis of the trigger pulse immediately following the initiating trigger pulse. The image recording device feeds the recorded sequences to the control device which stores the sequences fed to it.
