Method for representing the radiation exposure of an examination area of an object caused by radiological imaging and corresponding imaging device
First Claim
1. A method for representing a radiation exposure of an examination area of an object being examined caused by radiological imaging, comprising:
- acquiring a 3D image of the examination area of the object by a radiological imaging device;
determining an absorption coefficient of the examination area by a control and display device;
determining the radiation exposure of the examination area by the control and display device;
representing the radiation exposure of the examination area in the 3D image displayed in the control and display device;
querying a termination criterion; and
repeating the step of determining the radiation exposure if the termination criterion is not fulfilled.

Abstract
A method for representing an exposure to radiation of an examination area of an object caused by radiological imaging is proposed. A 3D image of the examination area of the object being examined is acquired. Absorption coefficients of the examination area are determined. The radiation exposure of the examination area caused by radiological imaging is determined and is represented in the 3D image. A termination criterion is queried. The radiation exposure of the examination area is iteratively determined till the termination criterion is fulfilled.
