Abstract
In an X-ray installation comprising an X-ray source, a patient support, an X-ray detector and an electronic evaluation system, a distance is determined from an extremity of a patient which is to be imaged to the X-ray detector and is made available as an electronic data value to the electronic evaluation system. If the distance from the X-ray source to the X-ray detector as an electronic data value is also known, then a scale can be calculated for the X-ray image from the two distances on the basis of the imaging laws for the generation of the X-ray image, which scale can be faded into the X-ray image or else electronically assigned to this image for an interrogation of coordinates.
