Abstract

A process for the examination of the flat radiograph of an object irradiated with the aid of an ionizing radiation source is disclosed. In an ionization chamber is detected the latent image of the object formed by the different electrical charges produced in the volume of the chamber under the influence of the impact of the radiation flux which has traversed the object. As this irradiation is continuous, the object to be examined is moved relative to the ionization chamber in the direction and at the migration speed of the ions formed in the electrical field thereof.
