Abstract
In a method, a computer and a medical computer for automatic failure analysis in order to provide a cause of failure of the medical imaging apparatus during operation, input data are read into the computer that include raw data or image data, acquired by the imaging apparatus. A set of performance indicators in the input data is calculated by the computer. A trained neural network system is accessed with the calculated performance indicators, in order to provide result data that, in the case of a failure, identify a failure source.
