The invention relates to a medical device for diagnostics and/or therapy with a system, with a device for self-analysis of the systems and creation of system internal status messages, with a device for interpretation of the system-internal status messages, with associated storage means for special technical and application knowledge, with an operating console for output of interpreted status messages and input of instructions, where the device for interpretation is embodied such that the system-internal status messages are converted on the basis of specialist technical and application knowledge into the interpreted status messages.

Medical device for diagnostics or therapy

A system and method are provided for optimizing the amount of radiation exposure to a patient. The system and method comprise inputting a set of parameters based on characteristics of the patient, positioning components of a medical imaging equipment, comparing the input parameters and position of the components to computed optimum parameters and positions, and providing an indication of an amount of radiation dosage to be dispensed based on at least one of the input parameters and the position of the components.

Method and system for optimizing radiation exposure for medical imaging equipment

The invention relates to a medical apparatus for diagnosis and/or treatment using a procedure (), with an operating console () to control the use of components of the procedure (), the operating console () having an input device (), an output device () and an assistance module () to assist the user, which can be adapted to users' varying levels of training. This enables the user interfaces of the operating console to be adapted to the varying levels of knowledge of the medical operating personnel, so that the user in question is offered only those commands, with corresponding additional information, which the user has for example already learned during training.
