Abstract: A computer-implemented method for providing a vascular image data record includes receiving a plurality of projection-X-ray images recorded in temporal succession. The plurality of projection-X-ray images at least partially map a common examination region of an examination object. The plurality of projection-X-ray images map a temporal change in the examination region of the examination object. A change image data record is determined in each case based on at least one region of interest of the plurality of projection-X-ray images. The at least one region of interest includes a plurality of image points. The change image data record in each case includes a time-intensity curve for each of the image points. The vascular image data record is generated based on the change image data record, and the vascular image data record is provided.

Abstract: An image control system has a table, a head frame, an imaging system, a rotation system, and a control system. The head frame includes at least one pin which immobilizes a select patient anatomy with respect to the table while the imaging system collects image data through a CT scan process. The CT scan process produces an image of the patient anatomy, with the image including an artifact associated with the at least one pin. The artifact masks an area of interest in the image. The control system determines an angle of rotation which will move the artifact out of the area of interest and rotates at least one of the table, the head frame, and the imaging system by the angle of rotation. A subsequent image produced by the CT scan process includes an image of the patient anatomy with the artifact moved out of the area of interest.
