Method and apparatus for assisting the determination of the suitability of a patient for a scan of the heart of the patient with an x-ray computer tomograph as well as a method and x-ray computer tomography graph for scanning of the heart of a patient

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for assisting the determination of the suitability of a patient (p) for a scan of the patient''s heart (p) with an x-ray computer tomograph (1), wherein thea) an electrocardiogram (ecg) from the heart of the patient (p) is recorded,b) the electrocardiogram is evaluated in such a way that, based on at least four immediately after one another and which have occurred in a temporally last measured r - teeth (r1 to r4) of the electrocardiogram the occurrence in time at least the directly next r - prong (r5) and predicted with the actual time and measured occurrence of the next r - prong (r5) is compared, andc) in which the quality of the prediction is visualized qualitatively.The present invention also relates to a device, comprising an ecg - apparatus and computer means for carrying out the method. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method and an x-ray computer tomography graph (1) for scanning of the patient''s heart (p), based on a prediction of r - teeth.
