Abstract

The invention is directed to a method for motion correction given series of two-dimensional images of a rigid body, whereby the rigid body does not lie completely in the coverage area of the images and is cut off at one image edge or, respectively, at two image edges that do not lie opposite one another. Given two time-successive images, the mirror image or, respectively, the mirror images of the other are respectively attached to the one. A simple motion correction method is then implemented between the two newly arisen images that now show an approximately rigid body that lies completely within the coverage area of these newly arisen images.
