Abstract

In a computer-implemented method, a three-dimensional medical image of an examination object is created taking into consideration at least one temporally and/or spatially variable cavitation bubble in the examination object. The cavitation bubble is created by at least one ultrasound pulse emitted by an ultrasound system into the examination object. The computer-implemented method comprises: acquiring a multiplicity of projection images of the examination object with a medical imaging system; determining at least one cavitation bubble projection image from the multiplicity of projection images as a function of a synchronization between a medical imaging system and the ultrasound system; determining a multiplicity of corrected projection images; reconstructing the three-dimensional medical image as a function of the multiplicity of corrected projection images; and provisioning the three-dimensional medical image.
