Abstract
A method for operating an X-ray facility for recording a three-dimensional (3D) image data set of a target area of a patient is provided. A recording arrangement including an X-ray detector and an X-ray source may be rotated about an axis of rotation for recording two-dimensional projection images based on the image data set. A model instance of a parameterizable patient model that is patient-specific and 3D is determined. Target area information describing the target area is determined in the model instance from default information. At least two at least partially different partial recording areas of the target area are determined from the target area information. The partial recording areas cover the target area along the axis of rotation. One projection image set is recorded for each of the partial recording areas, and the image data set is reconstructed from the projection image sets.
