Abstract
A method is for adapting method steps for finding a result in a CT-based decision support method to the evaluation of LDCT image datasets. In an embodiment of the method, a plurality of reference image datasets are acquired from a plurality of patients. A reference image dataset features at least one CT image dataset from one of the plurality of patients and an LDCT dataset from the patient. Furthermore, method steps for establishing result data are applied to the different image datasets of the reference image datasets. The result data is compared with one another and the method steps for establishing result data are adapted based upon a result of the comparison to the establishing of result data with reference to an LDCT image dataset. An LDCT-based decision support method is also described. Moreover an adaptation device is described. A system for LDCT-based decision support is further described.
