Abstract
Radiographic apparatus reconstituting an image by processing by means of a computer the signals delivered by a detector measuring the coefficient of absorption of a body through which an X-ray beam passes. A plurality of detectors disposed in a fan arrangement are used, whereby it is possible to decrease the number of scanning stations. According to the invention, this number of stations is an odd number for a complete revolution. Further, a number of detectors in excess is used for a given included angle of the fan arrangement so that the response of defective detectors can be eliminated.
