Description

The device with dismountable source and detector platform for breast x-ray photography and tomography integration technology
Technical field
The present invention relates to the device for breast x-ray photography (mammography) or tomography integration technology (tomosynthesis).
Background technology
As shown in Figure 1A, Figure 1B, Fig. 1 C and Fig. 1 D, known device 1 is for breast x-ray photography.
Described breast x-ray photography equipment allows to obtain two-dimensional medical images, is to obtain with sciagraphy specifically.
For this reason, for example as shown in Figure 1A, described known devices 1 comprises routinely:
-at least one x-ray source 2, it comprises X ray transmitting tube 21; With
-detector platform 3, it is arranged to relative with described source 2 and is intended to receive and supports patient's breast (not shown).
Detector platform 3 comprises transparent or have the breast support tray 30 of minimum X ray decay substantially routinely, and is integrated with detector 31, and described detector 31 is for detecting described X ray through after patient's breast at X ray.
Normal detector 31 can be sensor array or X ray photographic film magazine routinely, or any other known X-ray detector of those skilled in the art.
Detector platform 3 and x-ray source 2 are by shared gantry 5 carryings, and described gantry 5 may have angular extensions alpha around at central shaft A-A ' with respect to detector platform 3 and source 2, so that the required different visual angles of scanning breast x-ray photography.
Consider different patient's height, gantry 5 is slidably mounted in vertical stratification 6, thereby forms the main body of device 1.Therefore, gantry 5 can or reduce apart from δ in the interior rising of vertical stratification 6.
In addition, device 1 comprises the increased pressure board 4 that is called flat plate by technical staff routinely, and it is for compressing breast against detector platform 3 when the photographic images.
Flat plate 4 is connected to bracket 7, and described bracket 7 is arranged on gantry 5 in mode that can translation on track 8.
Bracket 7 can be vehicularized or manually carry out by means of for example thumb wheel 71 along moving of track 8.
Compare with Figure 1A, according to the gantry 5 of the known devices 1 of Figure 1B, also comprise arm 9, described arm 9 carrying sources 2 and permission source 2 are with respect to the angular movement β of vertical stratification 6, and detector platform 3 is irremovable with respect to vertical stratification 6.Therefore, device 1 can also be carried out tomography integration technology, that is, the radiation image of whole sequence allows to obtain the 3 d medical images of patient's chest in single circulation.
As shown in Fig. 1 C, replace as the gantry in Figure 1A and Figure 1B, source 2 and detector platform 3 also can support by sharing ring 10.Therefore, source 2 and detector platform 3 can move on ring 10:
Follow to-the property followed the angular movement on ring 10, for carrying out radiography from some angles, or
-source 2 can be independent of detector platform 3 follows angular movement β and moves, to carry out tomography integration technology.
For the device in Figure 1A and Figure 1B, in the device shown in Fig. 1 C, flat plate 4 is arranged in the gantry 5 that is fastened to detector platform 3 movably with respect to ring 10.
As shown in Figure 1 D, source 2 and detector platform 3 also can be independent of one another, that is, as being arranged in Fig. 1 C, do not share on ring.
Therefore, in Fig. 1 D, source 2 is arranged on movably on the C shape arm 11 of for example capitalizing omega shape (Ω) and (will be appreciated that, this form is not restrictive), to there is angular range beta with respect to detector platform 3, and being independent of source 2, flat plate 4 is slidably mounted in gantry 5.As shown in by dotted line and double-head arrow, C shape arm 11 also can move with respect to described gantry in the direction perpendicular to gantry 5.
Device shown in Figure 1A, Figure 1B, Fig. 1 C or Fig. 1 D is heavy (hundreds of kg, is generally 250kg) quite, and is generally fixedly mounted in the unit of breast x-ray photography special use.Source 2 and detector platform 3 are generally for good and all fixed on described device, and this does not give any design flexibility and make to transport described device more difficult.
