Abstract
Patient support elements, such as pillows, are disposed on opposite sides of an examination subject lying on a supporting bed in a tomographic apparatus. The patient support bodies include one or more reference elements having known composition and characteristics which are reproduced in the image at a display unit. Standardization of the measured values is thereby achieved in a manner which is independent of the apparatus itself.
