Abstract

In order to improve the noise suppression in a video image streamof a medical image recording system, the video image stream including a sequence of frames, it is provided that an image processing unitof the image recording system analyses the video image streamcontinuously in real time and determines at least one variability between successive image pixels of the frames, for example of spatially adjacent image pixels of frames and/or of image pixels of a plurality of the frames corresponding to one another spatially and temporally, in order, on the basis of the variability determined, to set at least one parameter of a noise suppression subsequently applied to the video image stream. As a result, the noise suppression can be adapted continuously to a current recording situation.
