Abstract
A system for generating a processed image dataset is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of parameter datasets (15), wherein a parameter dataset (1) corresponds to a clinically categorized population and represents a transfer function. The system further comprises a selector (2) for selecting a parameter dataset (1) from the plurality of parameter datasets (15). The system further comprises an image processing subsystem (3) for applying the transfer function represented by the selected parameter dataset (1) to at least part of an image dataset (4) specific for a patient, to obtain a processed image dataset (5). The selector (2) comprises a user interface element (6) for enabling a user to select the parameter dataset (1) from the plurality of parameter datasets (15). A parameter dataset (1) is based on a statistical distribution of a population characteristic.
