A method for establishing compensation information to compensate for a bending of a couch of an object table of a computed tomography facility under a weight of an object to be recorded, wherein a target region image dataset of a target region of an examination object is recorded with the computed tomography facility at a recording position of the couch, the method comprising:
- providing at least one marker visible in x-ray imaging at or in the couch;
- providing a three-dimensional reference dataset of the marker for a non-loaded couch;
- and
- establishing the compensation information from a comparison between the reference dataset and the target region image dataset, the comparison taking place in a projection space, the comparison including
- establishing at least one comparison image with a recording geometry of an assigned projection image of the target region image dataset by forward projection from the reference dataset.
