Abstract

A method for setting a medical imaging protocol includes providing an information data set assigned to a patient. The information data set includes an information about a provisional diagnostic finding regarding the patient. In an embodiment, the method further includes assigning a probability value for a positive finding of the provisional diagnostic finding to the information data set; and automatically setting the medical imaging protocol. The medical imaging protocol is adapted to the provisional diagnostic finding such that an analysis of a result of the medical imaging protocol changes the probability value.
