Abstract:
An X-ray distribution adjusting filter, and a CT apparatus and method thereof are provided, in which the X-ray distribution adjusting filter has a hollow inner part, and when rotating, a shape thereof is changed according to rotation angles, such that intensity distribution of X-rays radiating toward a subject may be adjusted.
Abstract:
Provided is an apparatus for scanning excitation light for a photoacoustic image including a laser delivery device including a rotation reflector configured to receive an excitation laser beam emitted from a laser beam generator, reflect the received excitation laser beam at a certain angle, and radially deliver the reflected excitation laser beam through rotation; a plurality of optical connection lenses disposed on a circumference having a predetermined radius from the rotation reflector and configured to sequentially receive the excitation laser beam while the rotation reflector rotates; and a plurality of optical fiber strands connected with the plurality of optical connection lenses and configured to guide laser light received by the optical connection lenses to a photoacoustic probe.
