Abstract
Non-destructive inspection of a component means that one has to look for deviations from structural integrity [1]. So there is a need to know what the structure should look like if it were good — and what the real situation is. This comparison can be difficult for complex structures because small deviations may not be obvious. So a method is required which responds only to the characteristic properties of a defect, while it ignores the potentially complicated ‘good’ structure. In this way the non-relevant information is suppressed, while all attention can be focused on the defect.
