Patent Abstract

An embodiment relates to a method for displaying medical image data, a user interface, a medical imaging device and/or a computer program product. In order to enable the meaningful display of medical image data, the method for displaying medical image data includes capture of medical image data; determining of at least one image quality parameter for at least one image of the medical image data, wherein the at least one image quality parameter comprises an image quality of the at least one image based on an item of spatial information and/or an item of temporal information; and display of the at least one image together with a representation of the at least one image quality parameter.
