Abstract: An embodiment of the invention relates to a system. In an embodiment, the system includes a component of a medical imaging apparatus; a mobile control device including an operating element designed as an electromechanical switching element; and a control unit designed to output a control signal to the component. When the system is in an operating state, the mobile control device and the control unit are coupled such that an actuation of the operating element causes the control signal to be output to the component via the control unit.

Abstract: A method and system are for outputting an item of medical information, the medical information concerning a suitability of a patient for an examination via a medical imaging device and/or the medical information concerning a patient-specific configuration of a medical imaging device, in particular for an examination of a patient. In an embodiment, the method includes acquisition of a measurement data series which relates to at least one physiological parameter of the patient via a first wearable which is worn by the patient; determination of the item of medical information on the basis of the measurement data series; and output of the item of medical information.

Abstract: A system is for contrast agent-based medical imaging. In an embodiment, the system includes a gantry of a medical imaging device; a contrast agent injection device; and a support arm including a frame element, a first connecting element and a second connecting element. In an embodiment, the frame element is connected to a stationary support frame of the gantry via the first connecting element such that at least part of the frame element is mounted to be movable relative to the stationary support frame of the gantry, and the contrast agent injection device is connected to at least part of the frame element via the second connecting element such that the contrast agent injection device is mounted to be movable relative to at least part of the frame element.

Abstract: A method is for operating a system for contrast-agent based medical imaging including a medical imaging device and a contrast-agent-injection device. In an embodiment, the method includes outputting a first operating element for operating the medical imaging device via a touch-sensitive screen; inputting a first piece of information for operating the medical imaging device via the touch-sensitive screen using the first operating element; outputting a second operating element for operating the contrast-agent-injection device via the touch-sensitive screen; and inputting a second piece of information for operating the contrast-agent-injection device via the touch-sensitive screen using the second operating element.

Abstract: A method is described for positioning of an examination object for an imaging method. The method is used to record an external image of externally visible features of the examination object. The recording of the external image is used as the basis for determining a position and/or orientation of at least one part of the examination object assigned to the imaged features. Subsequently, a check is performed as to whether the determined position and/or orientation of the at least one part of the examination object conforms to a reference position and/or reference orientation. Finally, if the determined position and/or orientation of the at least one part of the examination object does not conform to the reference position and/or reference orientation, the position and/or orientation of the at least one part of the examination object is corrected. Also described is an object-positioning facility. Furthermore, an imaging medical facility is described.

Abstract: A method is for positioning a positionable table for a patient inside a medical imaging device. In an embodiment, the method includes a determination of a table position as a function of an organ or body part of the patient for examination; an ascertainment of correction data for correcting the table position; a determination of a corrected table position based on the ascertained correction data; and a positioning of the table at the corrected table position.

Abstract: A system includes a medical imaging apparatus embodied for the acquisition of first items of imaging data based on electromagnetic radiation, and a control apparatus embodied to control the medical imaging apparatus and to control an ultrasound probe. The control apparatus includes an interface embodied to output control commands to the ultrasound probe. The ultrasound probe can be connected to the control apparatus via the interface.

Abstract: A database system is disclosed for the identification of technical parameters for an imaging device. In an embodiment, the database system includes a first retrieval facility for retrieval of a radiology dataset from a medical examination of a user from a database; a second retrieval facility for retrieval of radiology datasets from a comparable medical examination of other users from the database; an anonymization facility for anonymizing the radiology datasets of the other users; and an analysis facility for analyzing the radiology dataset of the one user on the basis of the anonymized radiology datasets of the other users.
