ABSTRACT:
In an exemplary embodiment, the measuring arrangement including the x-ray tube and radiation receiver, is capable of being locked against rotation, and the patient support is capable of being locked against longitudinal movement. The x-ray beam is selectively limited in extent by means of an adjustable diaphragm. In the case of a locked measuring arrangement and patient support and a limited x-ray beam, the measured values of the radiation receiver are detected by a computer which, from them and from information regarding the cross section of a vessel to be examined, determines the concentration and/or quantity of an x-ray contrast agent therein. The information regarding the cross section is obtained with a normal computer tomographic scanning operation.
