In a method and system for post-processing at least image data acquired by an imaging modality in a post-processing procedure on an image processing station of an image processing system, the post-processing procedure is stored with all partial-procedures and/or sub-procedures upon an interruption before its regular ending with all current process data at this point in time. The image processing station thus is available for another post-processing procedure and the original post-processing procedure is continued given a recall into a process state present at the point in time of the interruption.
