摘要:
A device for correcting measuring values of a group of radiation detectors for measuring the intensity or distribution of radiation, comprising an additional radiation source for direct irradiation of the detectors. The radiation of the said additional radiation source can be switched on each time when the radiation to be measured is not incident on the radiation detectors. The device furthermore comprises a calculating device which forms for each radiation detector the quotient of the measuring value (M1(x)) and the reference measuring value (M2(x)) of the radiaton detectors when exposed to the radiation of the additional radiation source.

In fan beam X-ray scanners operating with a large number of detectors, errors at and near the center of rotation are caused by the fact that the radiation absorption in said area is substantially always measured by the same detectors and that the sensitivity of all detectors is not exactly the same. The invention provides an improvement in that the measurement is carried out with a larger number of detectors than is necessary for the measurement of the scanning field and that the detectors pivot during the measurement. As a result, the absorption in the center of rotation is measured by different detectors so that, for a sufficient number of detectors the different sensitivities, errors are averaged and thus reduced or cancelled.

A device for reconstructing the absorption distribution in a three-dimensional body. The body to be examined is imaged from two groups of radiation source positions. Each group of radiation source positions is situated on an arc of a circle around the axis of rotation, and the acrs of a circle determine the dimensions of the region in which the absorption distribution is reconstructed. The detector device is disposed between the two arcs of a circle.

A computer tomography device which comprises means in at least a part of its detector array (5), for forming a difference measurement value between each pair of adjacent detectors which is proportional to the difference of the non-amplified detector output signals. At least one detector of this part is additionally connected to further means (14) which produce an absolute measurement value which is proportional to its detector output signal. Adding means add the difference measurement values to the absolute measurement value.

The invention relates to a device for testing a body which comprises periodic structures. The device includes an image forming device for determining measurement signals representing the periodic structures, and a further electronic device. This electronic device forms the frequency spectrum from neighboring measurement values in the direction of the periodic body structures, suppresses the fundamental and higher harmonics (G,B.sub.1,B.sub.3) of the periodic structures in the relevant spectrum, and retransforms the spectrums thus modified for application to an image evaluation device.

A device for reconstruction of the absorption values in a layer of a body from measured values taken along strips in the body is disclosed. The absorption values are obtained from the measured values by an analog or a digital device, using a transversal filter in which the measured values are assigned weighting factors in accordance with predetermined criterion.

In third-generation computer tomography apparatus measuring values must be intermediately stored partly for the total scanning time in order to enable processing of all measuring values with a given projection angle. This involves high expenditures for storage means. Moreover, the applied dose is larger than required for obtaining the measuring value per se. The invention consists in that there is provided a shield which moves with the radiator but whose direction does not change in space during the measurement, but does change relative to the radiation beam. As a result, it is achieved that all measuring values with a given projection angle can be obtained within a part of the scanning time, the said part corresponding to the ratio between the opening angle of the radiation beam and the total scanning time. As a result, the cost of intermediate storage as well as the patient dose can be reduced.

The method relates to an X-ray apparatus, which by the rotary scanning with the aid of a fan-shaped radiation beam provides measuring data about the radiation attenuation in the layer of a body, from which subsequently the absorption distribution of the layer being examined is calculated. In such an apparatus it is important that the center of rotation is accurately known. If this center is not exactly known, this leads to blurring in the reconstructed image. If scanning is not performed over a full revolution, this moreover gives rise to streaking artefacts. The method proposed automatically yields the center of rotation from the measuring data, so that during the subsequent reconstruction allowance can be made for the center of rotation.
摘要:
A device for determining the radiation absorption distribution in a three-dimensional examination zone which is irradiated from different positions which are situated in one plane and in which radiation sources are present. The device comprises two detector arrays consisting of separate, adjacently arranged detectors, which are situated at a distance from and parallel to each other in a first plane and in a second plane. The device further comprises radiation sources which are situated between the two extreme planes and which are arranged to be rotate around an axis of rotation which extends transversely of said planes. The radiation sources are line-shaped and are arranged parallel to the axis of rotation and diametrically with respect to the axis of rotation opposite a detector array.
