Detector assembling device 100 clearly can be observed by Fig. 4 with the above-mentioned annexation supporting annulus.Fig. 4 is the partial schematic diagram that detector assembling device 100 is mounted to the support annulus launching imaging system, and particularly, Fig. 4 is the schematic perspective view from the radial outside viewing supporting annulus.With Fig. 3 unlike, in order to know object, schematically illustrating in Fig. 4 and only the situation of a detector assembling device 100 being installed.But, in practice, two adjacent support annulus 200A and 200B can install multiple detector assembling device 100.As shown in Figure 4, the first junction surface 210A supporting annulus 200A coordinates with the first connecting portion 111 on first surface, and the second joint portion 210B supporting annulus 200B coordinates with the second connecting portion 112 on second surface.Although as the connecting portion 111,112 shown in 4 and junction surface 210A, 210B are respectively the projection and groove that can be combined with each other, the present invention is not limited to this.
In addition, it should be noted that, the surface that " first surface " mentioned here and " second surface " not can be seen in some cases.When detector assembling device 100 be mounted to support annulus 200 time, what first surface and second surface were respectively main body 110 is positioned at the surface of same plane with the side of adjacent support annulus 200.Such as in the diagram, first surface for from dotted line A-A ' along first support annulus 200A support with second the surface that the relative side cutting main body 110 of annulus 200B obtains, second surface for from dotted line B-B ' along second hold round ring 200B support with first the surface that the relative side cutting main body 110 of annulus 200A obtains.Region between first surface and second surface corresponds to the region between adjacent support annulus 200.
Return see Fig. 1, detector 120 is connected to the bottom of main body 110, such as, for detecting the emitting substance launched and produce in image checking process, the γ photon in Positron emission tomography system.It should be noted that, " bottom " mentioned here is comparatively speaking, detector 120 is arranged on main body 110 one end along the direction of arrow A in Fig. 1, during to ensure between adjacent support annulus 200A and 200B that detector assembling device 100 is mounted to imaging emission system as illustrated in fig. 3, detector 120 is positioned at the inner circumferential side supporting annulus.Foregoing, detector 120 comprises detecting unit.Detecting unit can be one, also can be multiple.Exemplarily, according to one embodiment of present invention, detector comprises two detecting units 121 and 122.In using, when certain detector or detecting unit break down, only need to remove this detector or detecting unit individually, and whole detector assembling device 100 need not be removed, even do not need main body 110 to disassemble from support annulus.
The component that main body 110 can be integrated also can be the component of split.Preferably, main body 110 can comprise plate 113 and supporting plate 114.See Fig. 1, the first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 112 are separately positioned on be oppositely arranged two sides of plate 113.It should be noted that " two sides " mentioned here can lay respectively on " first surface " and " second surface " above.Supporting plate 114 can comprise first end 114A and the second end 114B.Detector 120 can be connected to first end 114A, and the second end 114B is then removably connected to plate 113.During installation or removal detector assembling device 100, plate 113 can be installed separately or dismantle with supporting plate 114 and the detector 120 be connected on supporting plate 114.Can as illustrated in fig. 1, main body 110 comprises the supporting plate 114 corresponding with the quantity of detecting unit 121 and 122, and a detecting unit 121 or 122 is only connected to plate 113 by each supporting plate 114.When detector assembling device 100 comprises multiple detecting unit, also can provide the supporting plate 114 of the quantity being less than detecting unit, multiple detecting unit can be connected to plate 113 by each supporting plate 114.Certainly, each detecting unit the supporting plate 114 more than the quantity of detecting unit also can be provided, so that can be connected to plate 113 by multiple supporting plate 114.
The mode that second end 114B of supporting plate 114 is connected to plate 113 can have multiple, such as bonding, riveted joint and grafting etc.Preferably, plate 113 is provided with the slot 113A extended along plate about 113 (for arrow A).Wherein slot 113A is constructed so that the second end 114B of supporting plate 114 can insert in slot 113A, thus supporting plate 114 is connected to plate 113 by the mode of grafting.Certainly, in this case, can also rivet and/or screw etc. additionally be used strengthen the connection between supporting plate 114 and plate 113.Supporting plate 114 is connected to plate 113 by the mode of grafting, when detector assembling device 100 is mounted on support annulus, and can easily along the radial direction installation or removal supporting plate 114 supporting annulus and the detector 120 be connected on supporting plate 114.
Preferably, first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 112 are configured to the projection (as shown in Figure 4) extended along the direction vertical with plate 113 in be oppositely arranged two sides of plate 113 respectively, namely protrude to the front and back of plate 113 in the side of plate 113.Wherein front is towards upper surface in Fig. 1, the back side then with this vis-a-vis.This projection can match with junction surface 210A and 210B on support annulus 200A and 200B mentioned above, detector assembling device 100 is connected to and supports on annulus 200A and 200B, particularly more stable in the connection axially supporting annulus 200A and 200B.
Preferably, detector 120 has the size of convergent in the cross section being parallel to above-mentioned first surface and second surface along the direction away from main body 110.See Fig. 3, detector 120 is in wedge shape.When detector assembling device 100 is mounted to support annulus 200A and 200B, direction radially inside on the face parallel with the side (side surface namely shown in Fig. 3) supporting annulus 200A with 200B has the size of convergent.When multiple detector assembling device 100 is mounted to support annulus 200, because the interior volume supporting annulus 200 encirclement is cylindrical, therefore can make between adjacent detector can close-packed arrays for this structure of detector 120, receive more detection signal, make testing result more accurate.
As described above, detector 120 can comprise a detecting unit, also can comprise multiple detecting unit.Preferably, detector 120 comprises multiple detecting unit.Exemplarily, as shown in fig. 1, two detecting units 121,122 are comprised.In the present invention's other embodiments unshowned, detecting unit can also be three, four even more.In practice, can only dismantle as required or change one of them detecting unit, and not by detector 120 even detector assembling device 100 integral demounting.Multiple detecting unit 121,122 arranges along the direction vertical with second surface with first surface, and adjacent detecting unit 121,122 contacts with each other, to make multiple detecting unit 121,122 close-packed arrays.When detector assembling device 100 is mounted to support annulus, the direction vertical with second surface with first surface is the axis supporting annulus.
When detector assembling device 100 being installed between two support annulus 200, when detector 120 has the size of convergent along the direction away from main body 110 in the cross section being parallel to above-mentioned first surface and second surface, because the installing space of last detector assembling device 100 is limited, therefore can not install from support annulus 200 inner circumferential side, and when installing from the outer circumferential side supporting annulus 200, detector 120 can be subject to again the stop of the wall supporting annulus 200, see Fig. 4.Therefore, preferably, at least one in multiple detecting unit 121,122 is between first surface and second surface.As mentioned above, because first surface and second surface are positioned at same plane with the side of adjacent support annulus 200A and 200B respectively, therefore this kind of set-up mode of multiple detecting unit 121,122 can make at least one (detecting unit 121 such as, in Fig. 4) in multiple detecting unit 121,122 completely between two adjacent support annulus 200A and 200B.Therefore, when installing or removing multiple detecting unit 121,122 from the outer circumferential side supporting annulus 200A and 200B along the radial direction supporting annulus 200, one (detecting unit 121 such as, in Fig. 4) is had at least can not to be subject to support the stop of annulus 200.Such as in the embodiment show in figure 4, detecting unit 121 is completely between two adjacent support annulus 200A and 200B, and a part for detecting unit 122 is positioned at the inner circumferential side that supports annulus 200A and is stopped by support annulus 200A.When the preferred embodiment provided by the invention, if for the already installed detecting unit 122 of dismounting, from the outer circumferential side supporting annulus 200A and 200B, detecting unit 121 can disassembled, and then main body 110 is being disassembled, namely can detecting unit 122.If for installing last the detector assembling device 100 in circumference, the inverse process of above-mentioned unloading process can be performed.Particularly, detecting unit 122 is placed on its preposition in advance, then from outer circumferential side, main body 100 is installed, finally load detecting unit 121 from outer circumferential side again.
At least one in multiple detecting units 121,122 of detector 120 is between first surface and second surface, further preferably, the both sides of detector 120 can protrude from first surface and second surface respectively, or the side of detector 120 protrudes from first surface and opposite side flushes with second surface.This structure of detector 120 not only can make detector cover two axial region supported between annulus 200 completely, but also support annulus 200 inwall can be covered at least partially, make the region of reception detection signal larger, and then improve the sensitivity of launching imaging device.
Preferably, the size sum that detector 120 protrudes from first surface and second surface equals the width supporting annulus 200.In this case, when multiple detector assembling device 100 is arranged between multiple support annulus 200, the projection of the detector 120 of two adjacent detector assembling devices 100 just in time closely can be booked and support annulus 200 inwall vertically, make the arrangement between detector 120 tight, thus can not detection signal be missed, make testing result more accurate.It is zero that situation about flushing with second surface at the opposite side of detector 120 can be understood as the width protruding from second surface.
