METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING A MEDICAL IMAGING ACQUISITION

摘要

In a method for the optimization of an imaging acquisition of an object by a medical imaging apparatus, a first time period is determined, within which a calibration process of the medical imaging apparatus is executed, a second time period is determined, within which a breathing process for at least one breathing command of a recording protocol is executed, wherein the breathing process is executed at least in part at the same time as the calibration process, and a point in time for an initiation of the imaging acquisition is determined, such that at this point in time, the calibration process and the breathing process have been completed.

1. A method for optimizing acquisition of medical image data from a subject by operation of a medical imaging apparatus, comprising:
in a processor, determining a first time period within which a calibration process for at least one adjustment of said medical imaging apparatus is executed; in said processor, determining a second time period, within which a breathing process for at least one breathing command of an acquisition protocol for acquiring said medical image data is executed, said breathing process being executed at least partially overlapping in time with said calibration process; in said processor, determining a point in time for initiation of said acquisition of medical image data, at which point in time the calibration process and the breathing process have both been completed; and from said processor, emitting an electronic signal to said medical imaging apparatus to initiate the acquisition of said medical image data.
