Abstract

A scanning image generation apparatus is provided and includes an image information acquisition unit for scanning grid points of an object and for acquiring, on the basis of the scanned grid points, items of image information that represent an image. An evaluation unit has a software routine for evaluating at least some of the items of image information and for classifying the items of image information as usable or unusable on the basis of the evaluation. The apparatus also includes a release unit which enables an image recording if the evaluated items of image information are classified as usable by the evaluation unit. The scanning image generation apparatus moreover includes a memory with at least one quality profile stored thereon. The quality profile contains a person-specific software routine for evaluating and classifying the items of image information. The software routine is loadable into the evaluation unit.
