Abstract
A method is disclosed for eliminating the diffused radiation in a radiology image. The method fundamentally consists in interposing a mask comprising a finite number of areas absorbent to X-rays between the X-ray source and the object which is to be examined, in detecting the corresponding fundamental image in order to deduce from the areas of the same which correspond to the parts eliminated from the beam a distribution of the diffused radiation throughout the image, and in correcting the fundamental image based on this distribution. The method is particularly applicable to medical radiology.
