Abstract
To solve a control complexity problem encountered with very numerous detectors of a tomodensitometer, there is provision to group the detectors into groups and to subject all the detectors of a group to the same processing. By way of improvement, the determination of the mode of processing is performed during a view, and the processing is applied to the signals detected during a subsequent view.
