    摘要: A method for providing an item of conversion information describing an allocation rule of at least one physical property value of a material in a voxel relating to an image value of the voxel in a three-dimensional image dataset recorded with an X-ray apparatus is provided. By scanning a phantom including at least one calibration material in the X-ray apparatus, a calibration database that is used for determining the allocation rule is determined. The image dataset is recorded with a receiving spectrum geared to an X-ray detector of the X-ray apparatus. The receiving spectrum is described by at least one spectral parameter. For determining the allocation rule dependent upon the spectral parameter, calibration data derived from the measured calibration dataset describing different receiving spectra is used.

    摘要: A method is for providing a medical image of a patient, acquired via a computed tomography apparatus. An embodiment of the method includes acquiring first projection data of a first measurement region; acquiring second projection data of a second measurement region; registering a reference image to the at least one respiration-correlated image of the patient, wherein the reference image corresponds to the at least one functional image of the patient or is reconstructed under a second reconstruction rule from the second projection data, to produce a deformation model; applying the deformation model to the at least one functional image of the patient; combining the at least one functional image of the patient, deformed by the applying of the deformation model, with the at least one respiration-correlated image of the patient, to produce the medical image of the patient; and providing the medical image of the patient.

    摘要: A method is for provisioning quantitative CT image data acquired from a scanning field via a dual-source CT device the dual-source CT device including a first radiation source-detector system with a first capture region and a second radiation source-detector system with a second capture region. The method includes dividing the scanning field into a first subregion, representing at least a part of the intersection of the first region and the second capture region, and a second subregion, disjoint from the second region; acquiring first CT scan data from the first subregion and second CT scan data from the second subregion; reconstructing first quantitative CT image data from the first CT scan data and second quantitative CT image data from the second CT scan data; combining the first quantitative CT image data and the second quantitative CT image data to quantitative CT image data; and provisioning the quantitative CT image data.
