Abstract

In a method and apparatus to automatically generate a selected image data set from an entirety of medical measurement data of an examination subject, the entirety of the measurement data of the examination subject is received as input data, and at least a portion of the measurement data is automatically analyzed with regard to a number of specific, topologically representative content feature parameter values of the examination subject selected measurement data from the entirety is made, with the selected data associated with defined, specific, topologically representative content feature parameter values. The selected measurement data are assembled into a selected image data set, as output data.
