The disclosure relates to a gradient system comprising a first gradient coil unit, a second gradient coil unit and a flexible gradient amplifier unit, wherein the flexible gradient amplifier unit is configured to actuate the first gradient coil unit and the second gradient coil unit.

Gradient system with flexible gradient amplifier

In a method, computer and medical imaging apparatus for the provision of confidence information, an automatic diagnosis system is provided to the computer. Medical image data acquired from a patient are received by or accessed by the computer. A measure of confidence is determined by the computer, which describes the reliability of a correct diagnosis of the medical image data by the diagnosis system. The confidence information concerning the reliability of the correct diagnosis of the medical image data by the diagnosis system is provided as an output from the computer, wherein the confidence information is based on the determined measure of confidence.

Method, computer and medical imaging apparatus for the provision of confidence information

The present disclosure relates to an automatic method for selecting imaging parameters for imaging methods, to a corresponding imaging method, and to a corresponding imaging apparatus comprising a detection algorithm and a selection algorithm. A ranking of at least one qualifying value for potential clinical indications is created. The ranking is based on image data. The ranking is created by means of the detection algorithm. In addition, at least one imaging parameter is selected. The at least one imaging parameter is suitable for producing image data that facilitates a maximum change in the qualifying values in the ranking. The at least one imaging parameter is selected by means of the selection algorithm.

Method for automatic selection of imaging parameters for imaging methods

In a method and an imaging apparatus for creating an aggregation file on an MR scanner, operating parameters on the MR scanner are acquired by a computer, and are aggregated and structured in the computer into a predefined uniform format for creating an aggregation file.
