Abstract

The present disclosure relates to an imaging system for creating an image of an examination object comprising a system component and a control component. The system component has a component property that is able to assume a value in a first value range established by the imaging system. A corresponding system component of another imaging system comprises a corresponding component property with another value range with an overlap range with the first value range. The control component is embodied to control the use of the system component on the creation of the image, wherein the control component can be operated in a compatibility mode. In the compatibility mode, the control component is configured, on the creation of the image, to only allow values that lie within the overlap range for the component property of the system component.
