Nail 123, screw 124 are fixed on the reserved interface of the contiguous block 12, the contiguous block 12 for being fixed with four-dimensional adjustment platform 14
It is fixed on by screw 121, screw 122 in the supporting plate 11, the rear end of laser 13 may pass through at the center of supporting plate 11
Reserved circular hole 111.There are hole 112, hole 113, hole 114, hole 115 in the supporting plate 11, increasing this four holes not only can be with
Mitigate the weight of supporting plate 11, also may be such that supporting plate 11 is more convenient in installation and dismounting.
Certainly, the number in hole is not limited to four in above-described embodiment, hole 112, hole 113, the and of hole 114 in supporting plate 11
The shape in hole 115 is also not necessarily limited to the triangle shown in Fig. 1, and Fig. 1 is only illustrative the number for drawing this some holes, shape and position
Put, in other embodiments, those skilled in the art can also change the number and form in hole according to actual conditions, or even can not set
These perforates.
Shown in reference picture 5 and Fig. 6, the PET centers indicate component 3, including the first central plate 31, the second central plate 32,
First center tester 33 and the second center tester 34.First center tester 33 is located in first central plate 31
At the heart, second center tester 34 is located at the center of the second central plate 32.In the present embodiment, first center
Indicator 33, the second center tester 34 are the indicator board with cross scale, in other embodiments, band concentric circles also can be used

Shown in reference picture 4, Fig. 7, Fig. 8, Fig. 9 and Figure 10, the method and step of PET-CT frames installation alignment are as follows:
(1) the CT centers assembled instruction component 1 is installed on CT frame rotating parts, will the supporting plate 11
It is fixed on by screw 121, screw 122 on the reserved interface of CT frames rotating part 2, for indicating CT pivots, now institute
The laser for stating the transmitting of laser 13 is located at roughly the center of CT frames rotating part 2, and the laser 13 is launched a branch of to PET directions
Laser;
(2) PET centers instruction component 3 is installed on the reserved interface of PET frames 4, for indicating pet detector
Center;PET frames 4, which are moved to, to be needed on position to be mounted, is adjusted the position of the PET frames 4, is made the laser
The position of laser facula first center tester 33 on first central plate 31 of 13 transmittings, adjusts the laser 13
On focusing change 131, the hot spot on first central plate 31 is reached minimum;
(3) the CT frames rotating part 2 is moved with slow with one's hands slow-speed, if now the laser beam is not completely heavy with CT pivots
Close, then track of the hot spot on the first central plate 31 is a circle, then can be by adjusting the regulation on four-dimensional adjustment platform 14
Knob so that the facula position is motionless when CT frames rotating part 2 rotates, and now the hot spot is located on CT pivot;
(4) the mobile PET frames 4, the strong point 41 and the strong point 42 of the front end of adjustment PET frames 4, make the hot spot pair
Accurate first center tester 33;
(5) keep the position of first central plate 31 motionless, remove first center tester 33, make the laser
The laser facula that device 13 is launched is reachable and close to the position of the second center tester 34 on second central plate 32, adjusts institute
Focusing ring 131 is stated, the hot spot is reached minimum.The strong point 43, the height of the strong point 44 of the rear end of PET frames 4 are adjusted, makes institute
State hot spot and be directed at the second center tester 32.
It should be noted that before the strong point 43, the strong point 44 is adjusted, CT pivots can also be carried out true again
To recognize, operating method is identical with above-mentioned confirmation method, i.e., moves CT rotating parts with slow with one's hands slow-speed, if the laser spot position is motionless,
Show that now laser facula is still on CT pivots;If rail of the laser facula on rear center's plate when rotating CT rotating parts
Mark is circle, then needs to adjust the adjusting knob on four-dimensional adjustment platform 14 again so that the laser spot position is not when CT is rotated
It is dynamic.
It should be noted that position refers to very close to the second center when the laser reaches the second 32 position of central plate
Show device 34, thus the regulation for the strong point 43, the strong point 44 is only very small amplitude, can so being in course of adjustment
The position of the first central plate 31 of basic holding is motionless.If having during regulation slightly influences, can repeat the above steps, directly
It is completely coaxial to PET and CT centers.
