Abstract

A computer-implemented method is for providing a difference image data record. In an embodiment, the method includes a determination of a first real image data record of an examination volume in respect of a first X-ray energy, and a determination of a multi-energetic real image data record of the examination volume in respect of a first X-ray energy and a second X-ray energy, the second X-ray energy differing from the first X-ray energy. The method further includes the determination of the difference image data record of the examination volume by applying a trained function to input data, wherein the input data is based upon the first real image data record and the multi-energetic real image data record, as well as the provision of the difference image data record.
