Abstract
The invention relates to an X-ray apparatus which allows for the determination of the elastically scattered X-rays and the evaluation of the information contained therein. Because the scattered radiation exhibits a pronounced maximum value as a function of the scatter angle and because the scatter angle at which this maximum value occurs depends on the material in which the scattered radiation is produced, X-ray images thus formed contain essential information concerning the chemical composition of the body examined.
