Section: claims

1. A radiological installation, comprising: an x-ray source for projecting a short pulsed x-ray beam; a support for an object placed within said beam; at least one adjustable compensating filter, normally placed within said x-ray beam, between said source and said support; said compensating filter partially absorbing both x-rays and visible light; means for receiving x-rays that have passed through said filter and said object and for converting the resulting x-ray image into an electrical television signal; means for storing said television signal; means for displaying said television signal as a visible image; and means for projecting a beam of said visible image through said filter and onto said object so that the visible image of the object precisely overlaps the object. 2. A radiological installation according to claim 1, wherein at any point of said filter, the visible image attenuation is substantially proportional to the attenuation of the X-rays. 3. A radiological installation according to claim 1, further comprising: a means for deflecting the beam of the visible image disposed such that a portion of the volume in which said deflected beam of said visible image is inscribed substantially coincides with a portion of the volume in which the said X-ray beam is inscribed, the filter being situated within this common portion of the volume. 4. A radiological installation according to claim 1, wherein said filter is mounted on a support which is movable between two predetermined positions, wherein the two positions are respectively an adjustment position where the said filter is situated in the eam of the said image and a utilization position where the said filter is situated in the X-ray beam. 5. A radiological installation according to claim 4, wherein said support is integral with a movable patient table, on which said object is placed, and wherein the two predetermined position are defined by a given displacement of the said table. 6. A radiological installation according to claim 4, further comprising: means to output a series of digital data from said receiver; an image memory connected to said receiver; to memorize the series of digital data outputted by said receiver which is representative of a radiological image, wherein said memory is cyclical and of the autonomous reading type and wherein said memory is connected to said visible projection means. 7. A radiological installation according to claim 3, further comprising: means to output a series of digital data, which is representative of a radiological image,  an image memory connected to said receiver so as to memorize the series of digital data outputted by said receiver that is representative of a radiological image wherein said memory is of the cyclical and autonomous reading type, and further wherein a video projector having its signal input connected to the output of the said memory is disposed such that the axis of optical projection of said projector is substantially perpendicular to the axis of the X-ray beam; and a mirror interposed, in the volume within which said X-ray beam is inscribed, at 45.degree. with respect to said optical projection axis. 8. A radiological installation according to claim 7, wherein said mirror is fixed in position and is essentially radiotransparent. 9. A radiological installation according to claim 7, wherein said mirror is movably mounted so as to be removable from the volume within which said X-ray beam is inscribed. 10. A radiological installation according to claim 1, wherein said compensating filter is made of a partially visible light absorbing plastic material. 11. A radiological installation according to claim 10, wherein said compensating filter is made of colored plastic material containing lead. 12. A radiological installation according to claim 2, further comprising for deflecting the beam of the image, these means being disposed so that a portion of the volume in which said beam of said image is inscribed, substantially coincides with a portion of the volume in which the said X-ray beam is inscribed, the filter being situated within this common portion of the volume. 13. A radiological installation according to claim 2, wherein said filter is mounted on a support which is movable between two predetermined positions, wherein the two positions are respectively an adjustment position where said filter is situated in the beam of the said visible image and a utilization position where said filter is situated in the X-ray beam.
