Abstract
Disclosed is a method of radiography of an organ of a patient, including: first and second vertical scanning being performed synchronously, wherein a computed correction is processed on both first and second raw images, on at least part of patient scanned height, for at least overweight or obese patients, so as to reduce, between first and second corrected images, cross-scattering existing between the first and second raw images, and wherein the computed correction processing on both the first and second raw images includes: a step of making a patient specific modeling, using as patient specific data therefore at least both first and second raw images, a step of determining a patient specific representation of radiation scattering by the patient specific modeling, a step of processing the patient specific radiation scattering representation on both the first and second raw images so as to get the first and second corrected images.
