Determining lesions in image data of an examination object

Abstract

A method in radiological imaging for determining lesions in image data of an examination object is described. In an embodiment, the method includes determining anatomical structures by hierarchical breakdown of the image data of the examination object. The method furthermore includes image data analysis for localizing lesion candidates in the anatomical structures. Moreover, the method also includes determining the lesions by evaluating and filtering the lesion candidates. Moreover, an image processing workstation in radiological imaging for determining lesions in image data of an examination object and an imaging apparatus are described.
