ABSTRACT:
In a computer tomography apparatus which conducts a spiral scan, many images can be calculated quickly from spiral data, because data from the region of only one slice thickness are required. From an initial image I.sub.lr (x) in the plane of a reference projection l.sub.r at a specific location along the system longitudinal axis and from an auxiliary image I.sup.d.sub.lr+1 (x) the computer recursively calculates a new image I.sub.lr+1 (x) at the distance d/N.sub.2.pi. from the initial image I.sub.lr (x) according to the equation:
