Abstract

The invention relates to an examination apparatus with an X-ray device (10) for circular or helical cone-beam CT acquisition of projections images (Pi(E1), Pi(E2)) of a patient (1) with different energy spectra (E1, E2) and/or with an energy -resolved detection. By a combination of the projections, images (Ibone,i, Itissue,i) can be calculated that show predominantly the bone structure and the soft tissue, respectively. Therefore, a 3D model (Mbone) of the bone structure and a 3D model (Mtissue) of the tissue can be reconstructed separately. After removal of artifacts from the bone- structure model (Mbone), both separate 3D models can be integrated to a combined model (M) of the body volume with a high image quality.
