    摘要: A method, a tomography system and a contrast agent injector for optimizing the time sequence of contrast agent examinations are disclosed, an automatically controlled text announcement system being used for instructing the behavior of a patient before or during the examination, and it being possible for a multiplicity of different announcement texts of different announcement duration to be temporally triggered and announced by the text announcement system. In at least one embodiment, on the basis of the announcement duration of one announcement text to be announced during the examination, the temporal behavior of this text relative to the work sequence of the contrast agent injector and/or of the tomography system is calculated, and inserted in the timing of the contrast agent injector via an electronic connection between the tomography system and the contrast agent injector is one time pause that leads to a synchronization of the work sequence of the contrast agent injector with the announcement duration of the current text announcement in such a way that the text announcement ends at a predetermined triggering instant of the combined work sequence of the tomography system and contrast agent injector.

    摘要: A method for bolus tracking includes acquiring one or more baseline images. One or more trigger regions are automatically established within the baseline images. A bolus is administered. The automatically established trigger regions are monitored for bolus arrival at the one or more trigger regions. Bolus arrival at a volume of interest is forecasted based on the bolus arrival at the one or more trigger regions. A diagnostic scan of the volume of interest is acquired at the forecasted time.

    摘要: In a method and x-ray device to assist in the reduction of the dose of x-ray radiation applied to the patient in the acquisition of at least one x-ray projection of the patient, a selected protocol is entered by a user into an x-ray device, the selected protocol being defined for the acquisition of the at least one x-ray projection and including a measure or measures for reduction of the dose of x-ray radiation to be applied to the patient in the acquisition of the at least one x-ray projection. The does reduction measure or measures in the selected protocol are automatically compared in a processor of the x-ray device, with the dose reduction measures that are installed at the x-ray device for reduction of the dose of x-ray radiation to be applied to a patient in the acquisition of the at least one x-ray projection. If the result of the comparison indicates a discrepancy between the dose reduction measure or measures in the selected, defined protocol and those installed in the x-ray device, at least one such measure installed at the x-ray device is visualized as a measure that can be set or activated by the user, that is not yet included in the selected protocol.
