Abstract:
A method is for computed tomography imaging. In an embodiment, the method includes provisioning a CT data set of an object, the CT data set being previously recorded via a multispectral recording method; suppressing a contrast, caused by a tissue type, and generating a contrast-suppressed data set from the CT data set provisioned; and analyzing at least the contrast-suppressed data set generated or a data set generated via a machine learning algorithm based on the contrast-suppressed data set, the analyzing being configured to identify at least one change in the tissue type. A corresponding device, a control device for a computed tomography system or a diagnosis system, and a diagnosis system and a computed tomography system are also disclosed.
