  • Publication number: 20040066908
    Abstract: The invention is based on the knowledge that a representation of an object can be improved via a transmission with regard to a subsequent reconstruction of the object based on the representation, by using simulated data, which correspond to a simulated transmission of the object already prior to a reconstruction as advance information for measuring a transmission of the object and/or for generating the representation from a measured transmission. An inventive method for the representation of an object via a transmission comprises providing simulated data, which correspond to a simulated transmission of the object, for example in a memory, and using the simulated data for measuring a transmission of the object, for example in a computertomograph, to obtain the transmission of the object, by a control and/or using the simulated data for generating the representation from a measured transmission by a data preparation means.
