Abstract

This invention relates to a method of radiography of an organ of a patient, comprising: first vertical scanning and said 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 said first and second raw images, and wherein said computed correction processing on both said first and second raw images comprises: a step (32, 33, 34) of making a patient specific modeling, using as patient specific data therefore at least both first and second raw images, preferably mainly both first and second raw images, more preferably only both first and second raw images, a step (34, 35) of determining a patient specific representation of radiation scattering by said patient specific modeling, a step (36) of processing said patient specific radiation scattering representation on both said first and second raw images so as to get said first and second corrected images.
