摘要： A method and system for reconstructing an x-ray image from a partial orbit through the use of a “virtual” fan angle. The virtual fan angle is determined based upon the range of angular positions spanned by a source in a CT instrument or a selected smaller angle. Exposure data is obtained and he virtual fan angle is used to weight the exposure data. Image reconstruction can then proceed using the weighted exposure data. The described methods and system also function for data collected over a complete orbit.

摘要： The methods and systems of the present invention is an algorithm which estimates motion inside objects that change during the scan. The algorithm is flexible and can be used for solving the misalignment correction problem and, more generally, for finding scan parameters that are not accurately known. The algorithm is based on Local Tomography so it is faster and is not limited to a source trajectory for which accurate and efficient inversion formulas exist.

摘要： Scattered radiation is estimated by using a reduced image generated from a projection image, and the scattered radiation image of the projection image is acquired by enlargement processing. The scattered radiation correction of the projection image is executed by subtracting the obtained scattered radiation image from the projection image. In addition, when a primary X-ray image and a scattered radiation image in each projection direction are to be obtained by sequential approximation calculation, a primary X-ray image which has already been identified in an adjacent projection direction is used as a first estimated value (initially set value) in next sequential calculation.

摘要： A method of obtaining a computed tomography image of an object includes determining linear terms and non-linear beam hardening terms in a pair of line integral equations for dual-energy projection data from inserting average and difference from average attenuation terms, obtaining an initial solution of the line integral equation by setting the non-linear beam hardening terms to zero, and iteratively solving the line integral equations to obtain one line integral equations for each basis material. Attenuation by the first basis material corresponds to a photoelectric attenuation process, and attenuation by the second basis material corresponds to a Compton attenuation process. The line integral equations can be inverted by an inverse Radon procedure such as filtered backprojection to give images of each basis material. The images of each basis material can then be optionally combined to give monochromatic images, density and effective atomic number images, or photoelectric and Compton processes images.

摘要： An x-ray computed tomography device and method where backprojection is performed with pixels each having their own back projection range. The range is determined using a two-dimensional completeness condition such that every line through a reconstructed slice must intercept the projection of the source orbit onto the plane of the slice. The completeness condition provides an adequate amount of data for the back projection to maintain quality of the reconstructed image while allowing a higher helical pitch ratio. This is advantageous in situations where fast scanning is desired, such as patient screening and CT-angiography. The method and device are preferably applied to a helical cone beam system. The backprojection can be performed using cone-beam projection data obtained with a helical scan or after sorting the projection data into parallel-beam ray-sums in the transverse plane while maintaining the cone angle. The sorting advantageously further increases the helical pitch ratio and thus increases scanning speed and reduces scanning time. The two types of backprojection may each use either the full projection data set or a minimal data set determined based upon the completeness condition.
摘要翻译：一种x射线计算机断层摄影装置和方法，其中每个具有其自己的背投影范围的像素执行反投影。使用二维完整性条件确定范围，使得通过重构的切片的每条线必须截取源轨道到切片平面上的投影。完整性条件为后投影提供足够数量的数据，以保持重建图像的质量，同时允许更高的螺距比。这在需要快速扫描的情况下是有利的，例如患者筛查和CT血管造影。该方法和装置优选地应用于螺旋锥形束系统。可以使用通过螺旋扫描获得的锥形束投影数据或在将投影数据分组成横向平面中的平行光束和并保持锥角的同时进行反投影。排序有利地进一步增加了螺距，从而增加了扫描速度并缩短了扫描时间。两种类型的反投影可以各自使用完全投影数据集或基于完整性条件确定的最小数据集。
