Abstract:
1. A method for generating a medical x-ray image sequence with a medical x-ray device, comprising: adjusting a first x-ray image recording parameter of the x-ray device; recording an x-ray image of an object to be imaged using the adjusted x-ray device, the object to be imaged is an interventional instrument; subjecting the recorded x-ray image to a computer system for an automatic computer object recognition and a determination of a variable relating to a quality of an imaging of the object to be imaged, wherein the computer system determines whether a structure in an area around the object in the x-ray image is imaged; determining an adjustment of the first or a second x-ray image recording parameter by the computer system based on the variable; changing a setting of the x-ray device based on the adjustment, wherein an x-ray device with an x-ray C-arm is used and an angulation of the x-ray C-arm over an axis and a distance of an x-ray detector from an x-ray emitter are adjusted as a function of a computer-detected area around the object; and further recording a further x-ray image using the changed setting x-ray device.
