1. A medical user interface for the combined use of at least two medical examination systems, comprising:
a display data interface configured to connect to a display and to send medical display data to be displayed on the display;
an input data interface configured to connect to an input device for receiving instructions of a user;
a communication interface configured to data connect with the at least two medical examination systems; and
a computer configured to:
establish a data communication to the at least two medical examination systems via the communication interface, and to receive, from a first medical examination system of the at least two medical examination systems, a first set of examination data associated with a first examination of a patient;
track a state of a patient using sensor data;
process the instructions received from the user;
perform an automatic segmentation of image data obtained via the first set of examination data to identify a body tissue compartment of the patient;
compute, using rendered compartment borders resulting from the segmentation of the image data, a predefined sampling pattern to enable acquisition, via a second examination of the patient, a second set of examination data of the body tissue compartment of the patient at a lower resolution than the first set of examination data;
transmit control data to a second medical examination system of the at least two medical examination systems, the control data identifying a configuration to be used by the second medical examination system to perform the second examination of the patient to acquire the second set of examination data using the predefined sampling pattern;
generate the display data based upon the first set of medical examination data and the second set of medical examination data; and
transmit the display data to the display rendered to the current state of the patient.
