DEVICE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING IMAGE ACQUISITION WORKFLOWS

A device, system, and method optimizes image acquisition workflows. The method performed at a workflow server includes receiving data associated with previous image acquisition procedures that have been performed, the image acquisition procedures having respective image orders, the image orders having respective contexts, each of the image acquisition procedures having used at least one sequence defining settings to capture an image. The method includes determining at least one metric associated with a use of a first one of the at least one sequence for a first one of the contexts. The method includes generating a rule indicative of whether the first sequence is to be included or excluded for a subsequent image acquisition procedure having the first context based on the at least one metric.
