1. A method of X-ray examination of a body comprising:forming a flat fan vertical beam of X-ray radiation of low intensity by passing an X-radiation of low intensity from a radiation source through a collimator connected to said source with a telescopic bar;scanning with said fan flat vertical beam of X-radiation due to movement of said collimator and a receptor of X-radiation in a horizontal plane in relation to the body;receiving X-radiation transmitted by the body;converting X-radiation into visible light radiation which is further converted into electronic signals; andshaping and analyzing the electronic signals. 2.

A method as in claim 13, wherein the beam of X-radiation is shaped at a scattering angle in a vertical plane of 37–43 degrees. 15. A method as in claim 13, wherein visible light radiation generated from X-radiation received at any scanning moment is directly converted into digital signals. 16. An apparatus for X-ray examination of a body, comprising:a carrier for positioning the body;an information processing device;a source of X-radiation of low intensity and a holder with positioned thereon a vertical collimator and a receptor of X-radiation;said receptor being a vertical array of X-radiation detectors, each of said detectors comprising a first device for converting X-radiation transmitted by the body into visible light radiation and an adjoining second device for converting visible light radiation into an electronic signal;said holder being π-shaped and being positioned vertically;said π shaped holder comprising a first substantially vertical rack for securing said radiation receptor, a second substantially vertical rack for securing said collimator and a top member connected between said vertical racks, each of said vertical racks and said top member having a long axis, each long axis being mutually coplanar;the carrier for positioning the body being movable in a horizontal plane between the racks of the holder transversely to a plane of said holder, andsaid beam of X-radiation being positioned such that the horizontal plane traversing the bottom part of the body cuts off said beam by 2–5 degrees. 17.
