摘要:
A method and a suitable x-ray device (1) for carrying out the method are specified for effective and operationally simplified user-specific optimization of a parameter configuration (K) of an x-ray device (1), said configuration comprising at least one recording parameter (U,I,t,F). It is accordingly provided that a user (20) is shown a plurality of reference images (V, V1) for different reference parameter sets (PV) from a reference memory (21) in which are stored a large number of reference images (V, V0) each with an associated reference parameter set (PV), that for each reference image (V, V1) shown the user (20) submits an assessment (BM) of the image quality (V, V1), and that on the basis of the submitted assessments (BM) an optimized parameter configuration (K) is created from the reference parameter sets (PV) of the reference images (V, V1) shown.

摘要:
The invention relates to a medical imaging system as well as a collision protection method for such a system. In this system the movement of a moveable part, e.g. a C-arm, is stopped or slowed down, if the part enters an individual protective zone enclosing the patient. This zone is calculated individually for each patient from the surface of the patient detected by an optical sensor.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for “truncation correction” in an x-ray system, i.e. a correction method during the reconstruction of projection images of an object recorded from different projection angles, if parts of the object do not lie in the field of view of each projection image. The surface of the object is thereby optically detected and used during the reconstruction of projection images to supplement the missing image data.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method for presetting the imaging parameters during the generation of two-dimensional fluoroscopic x-ray images of a patient, wherein the optimally necessary dose for the fluoroscopic x-ray image is determined with the aid of a 3D representation, already present from prior examinations, of the internal structure of the patient and the intended imaging direction and this dose is used for the exposure of the fluoroscopic image.
摘要:
A system for planning a percutaneous procedure provides a patient 3-dimensional image data set within which an instrument trajectory is defined, for example, by selecting a skin entry point and a target point. A line, or “planned path,” is generated between the points. The system determines whether the path can be targeted so an optical axis of a movable arm coincides with the path so that a laser can be used for instrument guidance or whether a planned path can be targeted so that a C-arm can be made to coincide with the path so that the extension of the path is projected onto a radiation detector, using x-ray radiation. If neither laser guidance or x-ray guidance can be used, the path is replanned.

In a method for visualizing placement of a stent in an aorta of a patient with reduced use of contrast agent, a 3D volume image of the aorta of the patient is provided from a CT scan before placing the stent. An angiography system with a C-arm is provided to take 2D images of the patient. A computer is provided having registration software for registering the 3D volume image and 2D images taken by the angiography system. A first segmentation is performed on the 3D volume image to segment the aorta from remaining parts of the 3D image. A second segmentation is performed using the first segmentation on the 3D volume image to segment a bony structure of the patient from remaining parts of the 3D volume image. A first 2D image of the aorta is obtained from a first direction with use of a contrast agent. A second 2D image is obtained from a second direction but without use of contrast agent. The segmented aorta in the 3D volume image is registered to the C-arm to create a registered 3D volume image by registering the first 2D image to the segmented aorta and registering the second 2D image to the segmented bony structure. The stent is placed in the aorta while observing on the angiography system a third continuous 2D image taken by the angiography system superimposed on the registered 3D volume image.
摘要:
A number of two-dimensional projection images of a three-dimensional examination object are assigned image times and imaging parameters. The projection images are combined into reconstruction groups including projection images with image times specifically assigned or within a time interval specific to the reconstruction groups. The reconstruction groups are determined in such a way that three-dimensional reconstructions of the examination object with direction-dependent local resolution can be determined based on the projection images of the reconstruction groups; it is not possible to determine three-dimensional reconstructions of the examination object with direction-independent local resolution. Three-dimensional reconstructions of the examination are determined based on the projection images of the reconstruction groups. Reconstruction times are determined based on the image times assigned to the projection images of the reconstruction groups and assigned to the three-dimensional reconstructions. Further analyses are performed as a function of the temporal sequence of the three-dimensional reconstructions.
