Abstract

An exemplary embodiment includes an image intensifier television chain and an image subtraction device connected thereto, with at least one image memory whose stored image data is subtracted from image data which occurs at other time than the stored image data, and a display device for the subtraction images. A central control console is present at which a display configuration representing individual stages of the examination sequence is provided, which display configuration is controlled by a central control device in such a manner that the respective examination stages are displayed. The display configuration can preferably be distributed along a graphical image suggestive of the chronological contrast medium progression.
