141 Method And Apparatus That Automates Tube Current And Voltage Selection For CT Scans US14370517 2013-01-04 US20140376688A1 2014-12-25 Boaz Karmazyn; Yun Liang
A CT scanner and method of operating the CT scanner enables customized automated selection of tube current and peak tube voltage for a CT scan. The CT scanner receives data, each datum of which corresponds to a reference image quality (noise level at a certain tube voltage) for patient water equivalent diameter (“WED”) body size. The CT scanner then stores the noise level and patient WED, and a processor in the CT scanner generates a curve corresponding to acceptable noise levels as a function of water equivalent diameter. The CT scanner stores the curve in a memory associated with the scanner and the CT scanner is subsequently operated with reference to the curve stored in the memory. The tube voltage that can generate the reference CT scan quality (signal-to-noise ratio) with the lowest radiation dose to the patient is selected.

本発明は、X線放射を生成するためのソース4と、X線撮像のために対象物体を配置するための物体収容空間6と、ソース4とコリメータ配列8との間に配置されたX線コリメータ配列8と、X線ミラー配列10とを備えるX線撮像装置2に関する。ミラー配列10は、例えば、互いに対向し、ソース4のX線放射をコリメータ配列8に誘導するようになっている2つのテーパリングされたミラー22を備える。結果として、物体収容空間6におけるX線強度が増大する。撮像のためにX線放射を利用できるエリアにX線放射を制限するために、ミラー22と各ミラー22の長さLMとの間の広がりΘmは、ソース4によってミラー22において与えられるX線放射の全反射数が制限されるようになっている。この制限により、全反射されるX線放射の反射角Θrが制限されるという効果がもたらされる。結果として、物体収容空間6におけるX線強度が増大する一方で、物体収容空間6で与えられるX線放射の幅の大幅な増大を防ぐ制約が設けられ、これによって、物体収容空間6に配置可能な対象物体の撮像品質が効果的に改善する。
