Abstract: The invention relates to the field of computer diagnostics. The method
consists in the steps of radiation forming in this wave range, consisting of separate
partial radiations, which are different from each other by values of their physical
features, directing of the formed radiations into a side of the observed object,
receiving a radiation, dispersed from the observed object, through a focusing
element, transforming of the received radiation in electrical signals and forming a
visually accepted image of the observed object in accordance with the given
electrical signals. Besides, each separate partial radiation is additionally encoded
by means of its modulation, which differs from a modulation of other partial
radiations, the partial radiations are directed to a diffuser for decreasing their
spatial coherence and/or their dispersing by means of different portions of the
diffuser in order to create an additional partial radiations with an additional
modulation, corresponding to an angle of impingement onto the observed object.
After reflecting of the radiation from the observed object the step of focusing of
this radiation to a receiving device is realized, which accomplishes a transforming
of set of radiations in a corresponding array set of electrical signals, there is
realized the step of decoding of partial electrical signals, corresponding to said
partial radiations, from each of said electrical signals of said array set there are
formed partial images from array sets with various partial electrical signals and 
then an integration of the partial images and their fragments is realized in order to
form visually accepted resultant image of the object.

affixed to the wire surface by a brazed active metal bond. Preferably, the grains are present in
a single layer. The grains are disposed on the surface of the wire in a preselected surface
distribution. The wire saw can be made by a completely continuous process involving
coating the wire with a paste of metal bond powder components combined with a fugitive
liquid binder component. Abrasive grains are deposited into a layer of the paste. Thereafter,
the bond composition is fused at elevated temperature to braze the grains to the wire. The
abrasive grains can include superabrasive materials, such as diamond and cubic boron nitride.
Accordingly, the novel wire saw is suitable for cutting ultra thin ceramic wafers with
minimum waste of the work piece.
