Abstract
Disclosed are a method for serially recording and optically reproducing X-ray images on a recording material and an apparatus for carrying out the method. The method comprises the steps of disposing the recording material in an ionization chamber filled with a gas which is ionizable by X-rays; applying a high voltage across the ionization chamber; passing the X-rays to be recorded into the ionization chamber; heating the recording material until a deformation image is formed according to the charge distribution produced during irradiation due to the ionization of the gas; optionally cooling and fixing of the deformation image; optically reproducing, the deformation image; re-heating the recording material in the ionization chamber until the deformation image is erased by smoothing; optionally cooling the recording material and repeating the entire recording cycle.
