A method for calculating a CT scanner Protocol

The present invention relates to a method and system for image acquisition, in which the protocol (P) for controlling the CT scanner (10) is automatically calculated. The system comprises a system (1), comprising at least a CT scanner (10), a central PACS system (PACS) are stored in the image data and associated metadata and image data information, which have been within the system (1) acquires and an analysis unit (20) that is programmed and / or circuitry intended for analyzing the captured image data information and to calculate therefrom automatically the certain operating conditions and the system-specific protocol parameters for the CT scanner protocol (P).
