Abstract
一种计算机层析X射线摄影机,它由一X射线源(2)和一探测器(D)这样构成,使得可在较短时间内扫描被检测物(1)的体积。X射线源(2)包括一个沿Z向伸长的阳极(12),焦点(F)可在其上移动。同步于该焦点的运动,对初级射线光阑(14)进行调节。该初级射线光阑(14)使角锥形的X射线束(3、4、5)被这样遮挡投影,使得全部X射线束均撞击到探测器(D)上却没有过度照射它。探测器(D)由一探测元件矩阵构成。
Description
本发明涉及一种计算机层析X射线摄影机。
在已公开的计算机层析X射线摄影机中,对被检测物的扫描是通过一束扇形X射线束来进行的,该射线束由X射线源发出并撞击在由一系列探测元件构成的探测器上。为扫描被检测物的多个平行层面,在应用面探测器(探测器矩阵)时,在X射线源内设有一延长了的阳极,它沿系统轴线方向延伸,而X射线源和探测器可绕该轴线转动。在这类阳极上,焦点可沿系统轴线(Z轴)进行调节。
在DE3222030A1中记载了一种计算机层析X射线摄影机,其中,为从不同的方向透射被检测物,由X射线源和探测器构成的测量装置绕系统轴线进行的转动,可由此取消,即采用一位置固定的条状探测器和具有延长阳极的X射线源,在阳极上,可利用电子方法移动焦点,因此,由不同方向发射出的平面X射线束都可以到达探测器。这篇论文没有说明如何实现被检测物的体积扫描。
本发明的目的在于提供一种计算机层析X射线摄影机,其中借助于一个在Z轴方向上具有延长阳极的X射线源,快速地实现对被检测物的体积扫描。
本发明的目的是这样实现的,即采用一种计算机层析X射线摄影机,其具有一X射线源和一探测器,为能够在不同方向透射被检测物,该X射线摄影机可绕系统轴线转动,其中,X射线源具有一个沿系统轴线方向伸长的阳极,焦点在阳极上可通过一移动磁场沿其长度方向偏转,因而可扫描被检测物的体积,其中同步于焦点运动,对将X射线束遮挡投影成角锥形的初级射线光阑进行调节,使得穿透被检测物出来的X射线束全部撞击到探测器上,且该探测器由一个矩阵的探测元件构成,使得不必移动病人,就可对体积进行扫描。
采用这种计算机层析X射线摄影机能够获取体积(信息),而患者在扫描期间不必进行移动。因此仅转动射线源和探测器就可以进行体积拍摄。
下面借助于附图所示实施例对本发明作进一步的说明,附图中:
图1为本发明计算机层析X射线摄影机的主要部分;
图2为图1所示计算机层析X射线摄影机中的X射线束的透视图。
在图1中示出一个被检测物1,它是经一个由一X射线源2和一探测器D构成的测量系统来进行检测的。在此,X射线源2发射出一角锥形的、穿过被检测物1并且撞击到探测器D上的X射线束3或4、5。探测器D沿系统轴线6(Z轴)方向上延展,并且由一探测元件矩阵组成。为了扫描被检测物1,X射线源2和探测器D可绕系统轴线6转动,计算机把探测器D的探测元件构成的输出信号转换成图像信息,因而,所检测的躯体部分的图像可以在监视器上再现。
在壳体7内,X射线源2包含有一个电子枪8,它所发射出的电子射线9利用一偏转磁场10回转约18O°,并贯穿通过线圈装置11。线圈装置11由一列可单独控制的磁性线圈构成,因而可产生一个移动磁场,借助它,阳极12上的焦点F可沿其长度方向偏转。射线捕集器13可以防止电子射线9由X射线源2内逸出。
借助于移动磁场,焦点F可在阳极12的整个长度上移动。相对于该焦点移动同步地对初级射线光阑14进行调节,该光阑14将X射线束遮挡投影成角锥形,这样射线束不会过度照射探测器D。在调节初级射线光阑14时,要使在阳极12的端点处的X射线束4、5被这样遮挡投影,使得即使在那儿,辐射也不会超出探测器D。
在图2中精确地示出了中部的X射线束3。图2表明,射线束呈角锥形伸展,并全部撞击到探测器D上,没有过度照射它。
