I think you are underestimating the skill involved in
medical imaging.
For example, if you want to take an x-ray of a broken arm, you need to
make sure the arm is oriented in the right way and the x-ray is at the
right angle so that the break is clearly visible. That sounds like
enough creativity to create copyright to me.
Against this would be the case cited in the OP (528 F.3d 1258), which
specifically discounts the argument that skill=creativity.
