Abstract

A method is for the automatic regulation of radiation doses of a person for an examination with a medical X-ray device, which has a first dose regulation. In an embodiment, the method includes a specification of X-ray parameters of an X-ray examination based upon patient information and a specification of a dose regulation as a function of X-ray parameters as well as a limit value for deterministic radiation damage and/or a guide value for stochastic effective doses.
