Abstract
In at least one embodiment, X-ray images of a human examination object acquired via X-ray equipment are each spatially-resolved in a plurality of dimensions. In each case, one dimension extends in the head-foot direction of the examination object. The respective body region is detected in the X-ray images in steps that are equidistant in the head-foot direction and, based on this, the water-equivalent diameter of the examination object is determined in a plane orthogonal to the head-foot direction. The water equivalent diameters determined for each respective position is stored with allocation to the X-ray images and the respective position in the head-foot direction.
