Abstract
Method for providing a large-area x-ray image of an object mounted by means of an object platform and providing additional synthetic x-ray projections, comprising Recording of a plurality of x-ray projections by means of an x-ray device, wherein the plurality of x-ray projections are recorded during a linear movement of the object platform and/or the x-ray device; preparation of at least one tomographic volume from the plurality of x-ray projections; preparation of at least one first synthetic forward projection from the at least one tomographic volume, wherein the at least one synthetic forward projection yields a large-area x-ray image; representation of the large-area x-ray image on a suitable display device; selection and/or marking of an area of interest within the large-area x-ray image; preparation of at least one second synthetic forward projection comprising the area of interest; representation of the at least one second synthetic forward projection on a suitable display device; characterised in that the at least one second synthetic forward projection is prepared in a projection geometry that corresponds to the current orientation of the x-ray device in space.
