METHOD FOR IMPROVING A RADIOLOGICAL EXAMINATION AND DEVICE THEREFOR

摘要

The invention concerns a method which consists, before an examination with a radiological device (1), in producing a radioscopic plate of the zone of the body to be examined (1c) and in using said plate for determining first characteristic points, which define a measurement referential, as well as geometric parameters of a displacement adapted to substantially match said measurement referential with a pre-established referential on the basis of equivalent characteristic points or for adjusting the X-ray dose to be transmitted to the body during the examination. The invention is particularly applicable to bone densitometry using dual-energy X-ray radiation with conical beam.
