Abstract

The invention discloses an X-ray fluorescence CT imaging system which comprises an X-ray source, a multi-capillary focus lens, two X-ray intensity detectors, a sample control bench, a fluorescence detector and a data processing system. X-ray light emitted from the X-ray source is focused into a micro-beam parallel light through the multi-capillary focus lens and irradiates a to-be-tested sample. The to-be-tested sample is translated and is rotated by means of the sample control bench. The X-ray light and substances in the to-be-tested sample have interaction to generate fluorescence. The fluorescence detector detects the X-ray fluorescence. The data processing system analyzes and processes an X-ray fluorescence spectrum obtained from the fluorescence detector to obtain projection data of X-ray fluorescence CT. Intensities of incident and exit X-rays, which are recorded by the X-ray intensity detector, are calculated to obtain transmission CT projection data. The distribution and content of elements in the sample is re-established through the transmission CT projection data and X-ray fluorescence CT projection data.
