Abstract
In order to estimate a radiation load quantity for an imaging system having a radiation source, a base model is obtained for determining the radiation load quantity depending on a set of input variables, which include at least one radiation-source operating parameter. Measurement data measured for the imaging system is obtained that includes the radiation load quantity for a multiplicity of different values of the at least one radiation-source operating parameter. A refined model is generated by adapting the base model depending on the measurement data. Actual values of the set of input variables are defined for the imaging system. The refined model is used to determine, depending on the actual values of the set of input variables, an estimated value of the radiation load quantity.
