Embodiment Construction

[0045] Aspects of the invention are readily understood by first studying the exemplary applications. figure 1 The head 1 of a human patient is shown. Also schematically represented is the brain 2 and various other anatomical structures such as the tongue or palate within the patient's head. It is assumed that the user of the medical imaging modality is primarily concerned with the visualization of the brain 2 . A user may be a doctor, radiologist, or other person involved in the acquisition and display of medical images. It is also assumed that a three-dimensional scan of the patient's head is available. Depending on which area of ​​the brain 2 the user wishes to examine, he needs to select an appropriate viewing angle. figure 1 Middle arrows 6 and 7 represent two of several possible viewing angles. Arrow 6 represents the perspective of the user looking down at the top of the brain 2 . Arrow 7 indicates another perspective corresponding to the front view of the brain 2 . ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a data processing apparatus and a method for providing visualisation parameters controlling the display of a medical image (12). The data processing apparatus comprises a mapping component (16). The mapping component (16) is arranged to receive a current dataset (15) corresponding to the medical image and comprising a content description thereof,to compare the content description of the current dataset (15) witha content description ofa pluralityofstored datasets, to select at least one further dataset out of the plurality of stored datasets, to retrieve stored visualisation parameters corresponding to the at least one further dataset, and to prepare the retrieved visualisation parameters as the visualisation parameters controlling the display of the medical image(12).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a data processing device for providing visualization parameters controlling the display of medical images. [0002] The invention also relates to a method of providing control of visualization parameters of a medical image display. [0003] The invention also relates to a computer program product. Background technique [0004] The analysis of medical images with respect to the spatial position and orientation of objects shown in the medical images is known from the international patent application WO 2006 / 013499. The analysis results are used in order to define the parameters of the scan geometry for a new scan of the same object. Typically, a new scan is performed at a higher resolution or with other changed scan process settings from the first scan. For example, the first scan is often referred to as a discovery scan. Automated scan planning enables fully automated acquisition of medical data sets for MRI (Magnetic Resona...
