1. A computer-implemented method for providing an output data set as a function of an input data set that is determined by a medical imaging method, the computer-implemented method comprising:
determining a noise-reduced signal data set, the determining of the noise-reduced signal data set comprising applying an algorithm for reducing image noise to the input data set or an intermediate data set determined as a function of the input data set;
determining a noise data set as a difference between the input data set or the intermediate data set and the noise-reduced signal data set;
determining a modified noise data set, wherein the determining of the modified noise data set comprises applying a noise-processing algorithm to the noise data set, or applying the noise-processing algorithm to the noise data set and determining a modified signal data set, wherein determining the modified signal data set comprises applying a signal processing algorithm to the noise-reduced signal data set; and
determining an output data set, determining the output data set comprising adding the modified noise data set to the noise-reduced signal data set or the modified signal data set or adding the noise data set to the modified signal data set,
wherein the noise-processing algorithm is a function of an imaging parameter, an object parameter of an examination object, an output variable of a dose regulation, or any combination thereof.
