    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for configuring a medical device. The method comprises: providing a set of one or more parameters for configuring the medical device. Each parameter of the set has predefined values. A set of values of the set of parameters may be selected from the predefined values. Using the selected values the set of parameters may be set, which results in an operational configuration of the medical device. The medical device may be controlled to operate in accordance with the operational configuration, thereby an operating status of the medical device may be determined. Based on at least the operating status the operational configuration may be maintained or the selecting, setting and controlling may be repeatedly performed until a desired operating status of the medical device can be determined based on the operating statuses resulting from the controlling.

    Abstract: A system and a method are provided for simulating a breast deformation of a subject using sensor data obtained from an orientation sensor of a mobile device, with the orientation sensor being configured for sensing an orientation of the mobile device with respect to a direction of gravity. In accordance with the system and method, model data is accessed which defines a biomechanical model of a breast. A simulation subsystem is provided for obtaining the sensor data from the orientation sensor of the mobile device and for determining a gravitational breast deformation by applying a gravitational force to the biomechanical model in a direction which is defined based on the orientation of the mobile device. A deformed model may be displayed on a display of the mobile device. The system and the method provide an intuitive way of simulating the breast deformation.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a device and method for quality assessment of medical image datasets. To enable an automatic quality assessment of medical image datasets to identify potential errors or deviations that may be avoided in future imaging operations, the device comprises an image input (21) for obtaining medical image datasets together with respective acquisition information, each medical image dataset being acquired by scanning a field of view, FOV, of an examination object and the respective acquisition information representing information related to the acquisition of the respective medical image dataset; an image analysis unit (22) for comparing the FOV of an obtained medical image dataset with a reference FOV and for determining difference information indicating deviations of the FOV from the reference FOV; a correlation unit (23) for determining correlation information indicating correlations between the difference information determined for a plurality of obtained medical image datasets and the respective acquisition information; and an output unit (24) for issuing the determined correlation information.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging data processing system (126) for processing motion artifacts in magnetic resonance imaging data sets using a deep learning network (146, 502, 702) trained for the processing of motion artifacts in magnetic resonance imaging data sets. The magnetic resonance imaging data processing system (126) comprises a memory (134, 136) storing machine executable instructions (161, 164) and the trained deep learning network (146, 502, 702). Furthermore, the magnetic resonance imaging data processing system (126) comprises a processor (130) for controlling the magnetic resonance imaging data processing system. Execution of the machine executable instructions (161, 164) causes the processor (130) to control the magnetic resonance imaging data processing system (126) to: receive a magnetic resonance imaging data set (144, 500, 800), apply the received magnetic resonance imaging data set (144, 500, 800) as an input to the trained deep learning network (146, 502, 702), process one or more motion artifacts present in the received magnetic resonance imaging data set (144, 500, 800) using the trained deep learning network (146, 502, 702).

    Abstract: An image processing system and related method. The system comprises an input interface (IN) configured for receiving an n[≥2]-dimensional input image with a set of anchor points defined in same, said set of anchor points forming an input constellation. A constellation modifier (CM) is configured to modify said input constellation into a modified constellation. A constellation evaluator (CE) configured to evaluate said input constellation based on said hyper-surface to produce a score. A comparator (COMP) is configured to compare said score against a quality criterion. Through an output interface (OUT) said constellation is output if the score meets said criterion. The constellation suitable to define a segmentation for said input image.
