摘要:
A radiation imaging apparatus comprises display means for displaying an image obtained by imaging an object and light projection means for projecting a light projection mark onto the object, and displays a light projection position on the object onto which the light projection mark is projected on the image. The light projection mark is projected as a line of intersection which is perpendicular to the surface of a detector and at which two planar flat light beams visually intersect each other, and the light projection position on the image is moved according to the movements of the flat light beams. By calculating projected lines obtained by projecting the light projection lines projected onto the object by the flat light beams onto the surface and displaying the projected lines on the image, the light projection position is displayed as a point of intersection of the projected lines on the image.

A radiation detector includes a semiconductor element capable of detecting a radiation, a substrate on which the semiconductor element is mounted, and a support member disposed adjacent to the semiconductor element for supporting the substrate. The substrate includes a first end portion on which the semiconductor element is mounted, and a second end portion opposite the first end portion for disposing the support member. The support member includes a first support and a second support, and the first support and the second support each includes a protrusion and an engagement hole for engaging with the protrusion. The protrusion of the first support engages with the engagement hole of the second support to fix the first support and the second support such that the substrate is compressed and supported by the first support and the second support.

摘要:
A nuclear medial diagnosis apparatus is used for performing diagnosis by administering a medicine marked with a radioactive isotope into an examinee and by using an image obtained by detecting gamma rays emitted from a particular organ or tumor where the medicine is accumulated. An image (an image created by an image creation unit) is created by a signal (a signal as an output from a radiation detector) corresponding to the energy of the gamma ray detected by a radiation detector. The image includes a contamination component attributed to gamma scattering in the radiation detector. An image correction operation unit performs a convolution operation to obtain a contamination image. The contamination image is subtracted by a corrected image creation unit. Thus, it is possible to prevent image degradation by the gamma ray scattering in the radiation detector.

Disclosed herein is a radiation imaging apparatus and radiation-imaging-apparatus-based nuclear medicine diagnosis apparatus having a collimator in which a plurality of rectangular through-holes are arranged in a grid pattern and separated by septa is rotated through a predetermined angle as viewed from above in relation to the layout of a plurality of rectangular detectors that are arranged in a grid pattern. The predetermined angle ranges from 20 to 70 degree and more preferably from 30 deg to 60 deg. With this configuration, the influence of sensitivity variations (moire patterns) that are included in an image picked up due to interference with a collimator when pixel type detectors are used is eliminated.

A collimator, a radiological imaging apparatus and a nuclear medicine diagnosis apparatus which are able to improve the sensitivity are provided. The radiological imaging apparatus has a collimator 11 disposed to oppose a radiological detection device 12 and having through-holes 11a for passing to the radiological detection device 12 gamma rays in a specified direction out of those radiated from an object to be examined. The collimator 11 is produced by mutually coupling a plurality of metal tubular members 11A each having the through-hole 11a with the help of a bonding agent S in alignment with a plurality of detectors 12a constituting the radiological detection device 12.

A radiation imaging system is configured by a collimator 30A including a detector 21 with a discrete detection pixel corresponding with a pixel and a plurality of radiation passages 31 and looks into a plurality of detectors 21 through one radiation passage 31 to set a step width of rotation around a rotation center axis X1 only for an angle θp made by lines provided by connecting a center detector 21 of the radiation passage 31 and the adjacent two detectors 21. In the case of generating a flat plane projection image for one direction, radio-graphing is carried out on a projection image in a plurality of predetermined angle positions (−θp, 0, +θp) in the circumferential direction of the rotation center axis X1 and thereby one plane projection image is obtained.
