An apparatus and method for configuring scan parameters for an imaging system are described. The method for configuring scan parameters includes acquiring an RGB image and a depth image of a scan object, computing physical parameters of the scan object according to the RGB image and the depth image of the scan object, and configuring, according to the physical parameters, scan parameters for scanning the scan object. In this way, the scan parameters for scanning the scan object can be automatically configured, which improves the efficiency and standardization of a scan process. Moreover, an appropriate configuration of scan parameters can further avoid rescanning and poor-quality scout images resulting from manual errors. An example apparatus that may be used to perform the method includes an acquisition unit for acquiring the RGB image, a first computation unit for computing the physical parameters, and a configuration unit for configuring the scan parameters.
