Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2849250A1] Radiographic imaging method in which an X-ray beam is scanned through a multiplicity of positions, while a network of detectors are used to detect the images. The resultant elementary views are combined to form a resultant overall image without any errors at the junctions between individual views. To achieve this the attenuation is calculated for each elementary volume (8) so that object images at different heights can be reconstructed. Finally the images are combined to obtain a more exact final image.
