Abstract

In a method for imaging display of a spatially fixed subject with a primary (wave) radiation directed onto the subject, particularly ultrasound, whereby the imaging display ensues with the echo signals received by an echo signal receiver on the basis of the transit time and/or amplitude thereof with reference to a subject axis directed in the spatial direction of the primary radiation, the subject is located between the primary radiation transmitter/echo signal receiver and a reference surface aligned perpendicular to the spatial direction of the primary radiation and that reflects the primary radiation as an echo signal more strongly than other regions of the subject situated in the field of presentation. The average or expected transit time and/or amplitude of an echo signal of primary radiation passing through the subject that is reflected from the reference surface and received by the primary radiation transmitter/echo signal receiver is calculated or predetermined as reference echo signal. The transit time and/or amplitude of an echo signal of the primary radiation passing through the subject reflected from the reference surface and received by the primary radiation transmitter/echo signal receiver is calculated. The deviation of echo signal reflected by the reference surface compared to the reference signal is evaluated.
