In above formula, k represents projected image serial number, biIndicate that the gray value of each pixel, i indicate pixel serial number, [m1, M2] it is pixel coverage on transverse center hatching line.Here, the reason of selecting each pixel on the transverse center hatching line of projected image It is that the gray value of the pixel on this hatching line is more acurrate, therefore the calculating of subsequent incident intensity ratio can be more accurate.It is replacing For the regional area that in embodiment, also can choose in projected image comprising transverse center hatching line, add up wherein each pixel Gray value logarithm, as representative gray value.
In step 303, it according to the representative gray value of each projected image, calculates every two in multiple projected images and throws The method of ratio between the incident intensity of shadow image is:
I in above formulak1Represent the incident intensity of the first projected image, Ik2Represent the incident intensity of the second projected image, Ck1Generation The representative gray value of the first projected image of table, Ck2The representative gray value of the second projected image is represented, n represents total voxel Number.
And so on, the ratio in available multiple projected images, between the incident intensity of any two projected image.
In step 304, according to the obtained proportionate relationship of step 303, available each projected image is total incident Ratio in intensity.Further, due to:
Ik1+Ik2+…+IkK=Isum (4)
Also, IsumIt obtains in step 301, further according to ratio of each projected image in total incident intensity, just Available Ik1,Ik2…,IkK
Specifically, above-mentioned formula (3) is obtained by:
A ray to a point being irradiated to from linear accelerator 101 on electronic portal image device 103,
In above formula, biRepresent i-th point of gray value on electronic portal image device 103, IkIndicate kth image Incident intensity, aijIt is the element in projection matrix, is the length that ray passes through each voxel, represents j-th of voxel and electronics is penetrated The contribution that 103 i-th point of wild device for image, μjThe attenuation coefficient of j-th of voxel is represented, n represents the total voxel for rebuilding object Number.
Logarithm is taken to above formula (1), is obtained
To each irradiating angle θ, linear accelerator 101 is irradiated to all rays on electronic portal image device 103 and asks With obtain the representative gray value for k-th of projected image for corresponding to this angle:
For infinite ray, it is easy to get
In the present example it is assumed that the element value of projection matrix are as follows:
Define TkAre as follows:
Here, suppose that TkTo it is angled be essentially identical.Above-mentioned conclusion can be verified by two kinds of die bodys, A kind of die body is modified Shepp-Logan die body (Modified Shepp-Logan Phantom), and another die body is item Shape die body (Bar Phantom).
It specifically, is the Shepp-Logan die body schematic diagram of modification referring to Fig. 5 A, Fig. 5 A, wherein abscissa indicates fan Angle, that is, from 0 degree to 360 degree, ordinate indicates the sum of the attenuation coefficient of the corresponding all voxels of each angle, that is, Tk.From Fig. 5 A It can be seen that TkVariation within 1%.
Referring back to Fig. 5 B, Fig. 5 B is strip die body schematic diagram, wherein abscissa indicates fan angle, that is, from 0 degree to 360 degree, Ordinate indicates the sum of the attenuation coefficient of the corresponding all voxels of each angle, that is, Tk, as can be seen from Figure 5B, TkVariation also exist Within 1%.
Based on the verifying of both the above die body, above-mentioned hypothesis can be set up.
Furthermore according to formula:
Further according to above-mentioned hypothesis, that is, Tk1=Tk2, and then available above-mentioned formula (3):
Although here, the T in the verifying of two kinds of die bodyskVariation it is smaller, but this is not indicated, aforementioned hypothesis is limited to TkVariation within 1%, it is very reliable that the verifyings of both die bodys, which has only proved aforementioned hypothesis from side,.Even if Tk Variation be greater than 1%, do not influence aforementioned hypothesis of the invention still.
Equally distributed random noise is added to IkValue, to restore original value from these above-mentioned equatioies.Such as Fig. 6 institute Show, Fig. 6 shows a kind of simulation result, and wherein abscissa is fan angle, and from 0 degree to 360 degree, ordinate is the corresponding I of each angle0 Value.Specifically, in modified Shepp-Logan die body, multiple I are generated at random0Value (represents ideal incident intensity), is scheming In indicated with circle, since the attenuation coefficient of the die body is it is known that therefore, data for projection can be obtained by calculation (for example, according to Formula (5));Using the data for projection of front simulation calculation, calculated again by aforementioned method 300 of the invention in turn each I’0Value is simultaneously indicated in figure with cross.In the figure it can be found that the probability that is overlapped with circle of cross is very high, that is, calculate The I ' arrived0Value and ideal value I0Closely.For the Shepp-Logan die body of modification, error is about 0.65%.For figure For rebuilding, this error is negligible.
Fig. 4 is the Cone-Beam CT incident intensity calculation method flow chart of other embodiments according to the present invention.With reference to Fig. 4 institute Show, method 400 the following steps are included:
Step 401, it according to the correction coefficient of the accumulated dose of multiple projected images and incident intensity and dosage, obtains multiple Total incident intensity of projected image;
In step 402, the representative gray value of each projected image is calculated;

In step 405, three-dimensional image reconstruction is carried out using the mean incident intensity of each projected image, obtains each voxel Attenuation coefficient;
In step 406, the mean incident intensity of each projected image is updated according to the attenuation coefficient of each voxel;
In step 407, judge whether the mean incident intensity of each projected image meets the condition of convergence, if it is returns to step Rapid 405, otherwise terminate.By this iterative process, the calculating of mean incident intensity can be allowed more accurate.
In a step 406, the formula of mean incident intensity is updated are as follows:
In step 407, the condition of convergence is, for example, | I(p+1)-I(p)|<Ith, wherein I(p)It is that the incidence that pth time calculates is strong Degree, I(p+1)It is the incident intensity of pth+1 time calculating, IthIt is preset threshold value.
The above method 300,400 can be computer program, be stored in the program storage unit of computer 200, such as firmly Disk 270, read-only memory (ROM) 230, in random access memory (RAM) 240, processor 220, which is loaded into, simultaneously executes this journey Sequence.
