1. A computerized method for optimization of protocol parameters for a data acquisition protocol that operates a medical data acquisition apparatus, said method comprising the steps of: in a computerized processor, designating a protocol for operating a medical data acquisition apparatus in order to execute a data acquisition procedure according to said protocol, to obtain medical data from a patient, said protocol comprising a plurality of protocol parameters that respectively define physical or technical variables of the apparatus that must each be set to a parameter value; via said processor, defining a condition for at least one of said protocol parameters that is dependent on said data acquisition procedure; via said processor, configuring at least one rule that interrelates at least two of said protocol parameters, said at least one rule causing modification of one of said at least two of said protocol parameters when another of said at least two of said protocol parameters changes; entering a patient-specific, biophysical value of said patient into said processor that describes internal anatomy or physiology of the patient; in said processor, automatically optimizing said protocol parameters, dependent on said biophysical value, by modifying at least one of said defined condition and said at least one rule independently of each other, to obtain an optimized protocol comprising optimized protocol parameters; and making said optimized protocol available at an output of the processor in an electronic form configured to operate said medical data acquisition apparatus according to said optimized protocol.
