ABSTRACT:
An imaging apparatus is disclosed that displays an image acquired from an examination object. The apparatus includes an acquisition unit that determines image acquisition parameters and acquires the signal values of the examination object; a conversion unit that uses a transfer function to convert the acquired signal values into brightness values that are displayed in the image; a unit for extracting the image acquisition parameters; and a storage unit that has data records in which at least one transfer function is stored in relation to the image acquisition parameters. The conversion unit compares the image acquisition parameters with the image acquisition parameters stored in the storage unit and selects the transfer function as a function of the comparison.
