Diagnostic radiology apparatus for producing layer images
In an exemplary embodiment, a measuring arrangement comprised of a radiation source irradiates the radiography subject with a fanshaped x-ray beam. The output signals of the detectors of the radiation receiver control a video unit via a transmission network. The video unit is designed in the manner of a radar video unit in which a number of concentric image point circles is recorded, each of which is locally allocated to a specific detector in the radiation receiver via the transmission network and is modulated in its intensity largely corresponding to the output signal of the associated detector. The recording operation on the viewing screen of the video unit is synchronized with the scan movement of the measuring arrangement.
