Abstract
A method is for supporting clinical decisions for a diagnosis or therapy of a patient using a medical imaging system. An embodiment of the method includes receiving a procedure order; based on the received procedure order, automatically identifying a clinical context of the ordered procedure; generating preliminary imaging data of at least a part of the patients anatomy; generating feature extraction data based on the identified clinical context and on the preliminary imaging data; extracting at least one clinical context specific feature using the generated feature extraction data; annotating the at least one extracted clinical context specific feature to obtain at least one annotated extracted feature; and selecting, for the identified clinical context, a similar case data set from a reference database of case data sets based on the at least one annotated extracted feature.
