Method and apparatus for providing two digital panoramic layer images

Abstract:

The invention relates to a method for providing a first and a second digital panoramic layer image optimized for a comparison, wherein the first and second panoramic layer images each have multiple projections detected and stored for them by means of at least one digital detector during an at least partial revolution of a recording unit around an object to be recorded, and the first and second panoramic layer images are each produced from the multiple projections in accordance with a computation code and by forming a panoramic layer. Differences between the first and second panoramic layer images are minimized by altering at least one parameter of the computation code for fresh production of the first and/or second panoramic layer image. In addition, the invention relates to a corresponding apparatus.
