Abstract:
A method is provided for operating a medical imaging X-ray device. The method records an earlier individual image of a series of images of a patient using a recording facility. The location of a medical component is identified, and the medical component is localized in the earlier individual image using a computing facility. A subregion of the earlier individual image is specified, determined by the position of the medical component localized in the earlier individual image and with the localized medical component represented. A later individual image is recorded and the medical component is localized in the later individual image. The later individual image is displayed, the later individual image averaged exclusively region-specifically in the region of the medical component with the subregion of the earlier individual image. Method acts are repeated with the displayed individual image as the earlier individual image to enhance visibility of the medical component.

Claim (Index 10):
A medical imaging X-ray device comprising:\n a recording facility for recording at least two individual images of a series of images with a plurality of individual images of a body part of a patient, wherein the location of a medical component in the body part is identified; a computing facility for localizing the medical component in the at least two recorded individual images; and a display facility for displaying a respective individual image of the series of images, wherein the computing facility is configured for the repeated specification of a subregion of an earlier individual image, the subregion determined by the position of the medical component localized in the earlier individual image representing the localized medical component, and to average a later individual image exclusively region-specifically in the region of the medical component with the subregion of the earlier individual image, wherein a respective use of the displayed individual image of an earlier repetition as an earlier individual image of a later repetition causes the averaging to take place iteratively.
