Claim One:
1. Method for reconstructing multidimensional objects from one- or two-dimensional image data, comprising: using a processor to perform recording one- or two-dimensional partial image areas of an object; and using absolute positions of individual partial image areas in space and/or relative positions of the individual partial image areas to each other along with one- or two-dimensional image information of the individual partial image areas for generating one- or two-dimensional image data; wherein a first group of space elements is generated in a multidimensional voxel space from first space elements which contain multidimensional image information and touch or intersect planes or lines of the partial image areas by the one- or two-dimensional image data; wherein a second group of space elements is generated in the multidimensional voxel space from second space elements by an information transformation from the multidimensional image information of the first group of space elements; wherein said information transformation includes at least one search beam running from each first space element along a pre-determinable multidimensional direction vector, thereby defining those second space elements determined by the multidimensional image information of that first space element which forms a staffing point of the search beam; and wherein the search beam has a chronological and/or spatial staffing point on the plane or line of the partial image area used to determine the multidimensional image information of the first space element, and the search beam has a maximum spatial and/or chronological length along the pre-determinable multidimensional direction vector; wherein the second space elements are determined in a first step by the multidimensional image information of that first space element which forms the starting point of the search beam, and the second space elements are weighted in further steps by multidimensional image information of further first space elements which form starting points of search beams which also penetrate the second space elements, wherein the weights orientate themselves at multidimensional distances of each second space element to the respective starting points.
