Abstract
A method is for generating image data using a computer tomography device. CT raw data is provided. An initial image is produced from the CT raw data. The initial image is segmented into regions based upon anatomical features. An image mask corresponding to the regions in each case is produced for the initial image, the image mask defining an effective region for a respectively assigned mapping rule. The mapping rules are applied in the effective regions defined by the respective image masks, and the image data is generated based upon the initial image processed via the mapping rules.
