[Conventional roentgen functional diagnosis--videodensitometry. 1. Densitometric and topometric measurements of roentgen video images: technique and method of measuring].
It is possible to measure movements in the human body with the help of X-ray television systems. A great number of different techniques has been published in the scientific literature. They all based on only two principles with qualitative differences in signal acquisition. The densitometric and topometric measurements are assessed and compared. Neither the densitometric nor the topometric principle seems to be superior. To support the experimental work the videoanalyser VIANA MP was developed on the Ilmenau Institute of Technology.
