ABSTRACT:
In a method for optimization of procedures in radiological diagnostics on the basis of digital images (present on a computer of an image workstation) of the same or different modalities in radiological diagnostics, procedure-specific and/or other image processing steps are implemented with using an image processing program on the basis of procedure data that are predetermined and/or newly-entered via a procedure-specifically-configured user interface, until an optimally evaluable result image has been obtained. The procedure steps are implemented by execution of the image processing steps on the basis of the procedure data on the computer. A finding is made and storage of the procedure result in the form of image and finding data is initialized. The procedure result is stored in the form of image and finding data in a memory of the computer. The procedure data that were used and the procedure steps that have occurred are analyzed and are stored as needed.
