摘要： A method for imaging an object in a computed tomography (CT) system with a plurality of sources comprising a first source and a second source, wherein the plurality of sources together with a detector array are mounted on a rotatable gantry, and wherein an intensity of the second source has unknown fluctuations is provided. Projection data is collected using the first source in a first gantry position. Projection data is collected using the second source in a second gantry position, wherein projection data from the first source in the first gantry position substantially overlaps projection data from the second source in the second gantry position. Data from the first source at the first gantry position is used to correct for source fluctuations of the second source at the second gantry position.

摘要： The present invention provides a radiotherapy treatment apparatus that includes a treatment beam, a magnetic field disposed parallel collinear to the treatment beam, and a target that is disposed along the treatment beam. The treatment beam can be a charged particle beam, a proton beam, an electron beam, or a linear accelerator (Linac) beam. The magnetic field is from a magnetic resonance imager (MRI), a megavolt x-ray imager, or a kilovolt x-ray imager and is disposed to operate in coordination with operation of the treatment beam and to narrow the beam. The tumor is disposed to rotate with respect to the treatment beam and the magnetic field, or the treatment beam and the magnetic field are disposed to rotate up to 360° with respect to the target when mounted to a ring gantry. The apparatus can include a rotation angle dependent shim disposed to account for Earth's magnetic field.

摘要： A method for determining a composition of an object using a spectral x-ray system is provided. X-ray photons of at least two different energies are transmitted through the object. The energy of each detected x-ray photon using a detector in the x-ray system is estimated. A first weighted sum of the number of detected photons of each energy is found using a first weighting function, wherein the first weighting function is dependent on the attenuation coefficient function of a first material. In another embodiment, the photons are binned into two energy bins wherein there is a gap between the energy bins.

摘要： An x-ray tube having sensors, magnets, and/or active compensation means operatively coupled thereto or integrated therein for aligning its electron beam with an external magnetic field. Permanent magnets positioned behind the anode and cathode respectively or electromagnets are used to produce a strong, properly aligned internal magnetic field. The x-ray tube is thus less sensitive to other magnetic fields that are not parallel to the anode-cathode axis. The x-ray tube can be mounted in a manner that it can pivot, allowing it to move and align itself. The x-ray tube can also be mounted such that a torque can be sensed. This sensed mechanical force is then used as an input to determine current applied to electromagnetic coils arranged to oppose a transverse magnetic field.

摘要： A method is described for increasing the temporal resolution of MR fluoroscopy procedures. A central portion of the image requiring a higher temporal resolution is updated more frequently using less-than-complete newly acquired NMR data. A running average of the signals produced by peripheral structures is used to form the periphery of the image and to remove artifact-producing data from the less-than-complete NMR data.
