Method to produce a body tomogram from the adsorption distribution of ionizing radiation according to the convolution kernel and equipment to carry out the method

The method can be employed to vary the sharpness of the contours of individual areas of the body tomogram and, in addition, the differences in brightness between these individual areas. For this purpose, a number of one-dimensional convolution kernels are provided. The convolution kernel for the convolution of the series of measurements is made up of a number of the individual convolution kernels stored by assigning various weighting factors and by additive superposition of the convolution kernels weighted in this way (computer). The method can also be used for non-destructive materials testing. (DG)
