In a method for producing an image sequence on the basis of two volume
datasets that were acquired at different points in time, a first set of
deformation vectors is determined that maps image contents of the first
volume dataset onto image contents of the second volume datasets,
subsequently a second set of deformation vectors is determined that maps
image contents of the second volume dataset onto image contents of the
first volume dataset. Subsequently, sets of intermediate volume datasets
are produced using attenuated deformation vectors with deformation
factors A.sub.i and B.sub.i. Dependent on the size of the deformation
factors, the image information of the individual intermediate volume
datasets are shifted to different degrees in relationship to the
corresponding volume dataset. Subsequently, a set of dissolve volume
datasets is produced and displayed as an image sequence.
