RÖNTGENUNTERSUCHUNGSVORRICHTUNG MIT REGELUNG DER STRAHLENDOSIS

摘要

An x-ray examination apparatus comprises an x-ray source for generating an x-ray image and an image analysis system derives brightness variations from the x-ray image and derives a dose control signal dependent on said brightness variations in order to control the x-ray source. The image analysis system derives a distribution of said brightness variations and derives the dose control signal from the distribution of brightness variations. Preferably, the image analysis system is arranged to derive the brightness variations from the processed image and a histogram analysis is employed to derive the dose control signal.
