ABSTRACT:
Provided is a method for generating views of tomographic image data. At least one view of an object area is generated by image filtering from tomographic CT image data by using a modulation transfer function and coordinate information. A filter algorithm is used for the image filtering and, if appropriate, further view parameters required for generating the view may be stored in a view file assigned to the CT image data. The view file is called up, and the filter algorithm as well as, if appropriate, the further view parameters are applied to the CT image for the purpose of renewed generation of the view.
