Description

Technical Field

Background
When an X-ray scanning apparatus such as an X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) machine or an X-ray machine is used to perform X-ray scanning imaging on a human body, it is usually necessary to determine a set of scanning parameters related to scanning, for example, a scanning parameter set including a tube current (tube current for short), a scanning time period, and the like. Some applications also refer to the scan parameters as a "scan protocol" and initiate a formal scan check after the scan protocol is loaded.
In practical applications, in order to speed up a scanning process, a default scanning parameter is usually preset in a system before an X-ray scanning device leaves a factory, so that when a human body is scanned, the scanning parameter is directly used for scanning. However, in some application scenarios, for example, when the power supply voltage is unstable or the transformer is not equipped enough, such as the load is too much and the power of the transformer is small, the voltage input to the X-ray scanning device by the line may not meet the set requirement, which makes the system may not complete scanning according to the fixed set scanning parameters.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is further described in detail by referring to the following examples.
Fig. 1 is an exemplary flowchart of a scan parameter determining method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the method may include the steps of:
step 101, acquiring a first input voltage when the X-ray scanning device scans under a first tube current condition, and acquiring a second input voltage when the X-ray scanning device scans under a second tube current condition. Wherein the first tube current is a determined lower value tube current and the second tube current is a determined higher value tube current.
Fig. 2A and 2B show a schematic of a circuit for measuring an input voltage in an example of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2A, the first tube current determined in this example is a negligibly small value current, when the first input voltage of the X-ray scanning device 20 measured using the AC power source AC with a voltage of U0 is U1. As shown in fig. 2B, the second tube current is determined to be a larger value current I in this example, and the first input voltage of the X-ray scanning apparatus 20 is measured to be U2.
This step 101 may be performed once when the X-ray scanning device is first installed and/or at each routine quality check of the X-ray scanning device. In both cases, step 101 is acquired while scanning independently of the X-ray human scan imaging.
Furthermore, when the X-ray scanning device performs a dynamic scan (such as a modulation scan), data of the dynamic scan may be acquired. In this case, step 101 does not need to perform a separate scan, but directly uses the dynamic scan data to obtain.
And 102, calculating the current line impedance according to the first tube current, the first input voltage, the second tube current and the second input voltage.
For the data measured in the example shown in fig. 2A and 2B, the current line impedance R can be calculated directly according to equation (1) in this step:
R=(U1-U2)/I (1)
and 103, comparing the current line impedance with a preset impedance threshold, and determining the configuration types of the tube current and the scanning time length in the scanning parameters according to the comparison result and the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance determined by the X-ray scanning equipment.
In this step, corresponding to different X-ray scanning devices, according to the hardware capability of the X-ray scanning device, the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance can be obtained, which is generally an inverse proportional relationship. In addition, according to the hardware capability of the X-ray scanning device, an optimal impedance value range corresponding to the X-ray scanning device can be determined, and accordingly, at least one impedance threshold value can be obtained. For example, if a threshold is set, a first threshold corresponding to a higher impedance threshold may be obtained. If two thresholds are set, a first threshold corresponding to a higher impedance threshold and a second threshold corresponding to a lower impedance threshold may be obtained.
In addition, the product of the tube current and the scan duration can be determined based on the scan dose (typically expressed in milliamps seconds) required for the current scan.
For the above case where the first threshold and the second threshold are set, when the current line impedance calculated in step 102 is greater than the first threshold, it is known that the tube current at this time should be lower than the line impedance when the line impedance is less than or equal to the first threshold according to the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance, and accordingly, under the condition that the product of the tube current and the scanning time is not changed, the scanning time at this time should be longer than or equal to the first threshold time than the line impedance, and therefore, the configuration type of the tube current and the scanning time at this time may be the first configuration type of the low-value tube current and the high-value scanning time. Similarly, when the current line impedance calculated in step 102 is smaller than the second threshold, it is known that the current tube current should be higher than that when the line impedance is greater than or equal to the second threshold according to the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance, and accordingly, the scan duration should be shorter than that when the line impedance is greater than or equal to the second threshold under the condition that the product of the tube current and the scan duration is not changed, so that the configuration type of the current tube and the scan duration may be the third configuration type of the high-value tube current and the low-value scan duration. In contrast, when the present line impedance is between the second threshold and the first threshold, the type of configuration of the tube current and the scan duration at that time may be referred to as a second type of configuration of median tube current and median scan duration.
For the case where only the first threshold is set, the configuration types of the tube current and the scan duration when the current line impedance is less than or equal to the first threshold duration are collectively referred to as a second configuration type of the median tube current and the median scan duration.
In summary, the step 103 can include at least the following two cases:
case where only the first threshold value R1 is set: when the current line impedance R & gt, R1, determining the configuration type of the tube current and the scanning duration in the scanning parameters as a first configuration type of low-value tube current and high-value scanning duration according to the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance determined by the corresponding X-ray scanning equipment and the required scanning dosage; and when the current line impedance R is less than or equal to R1, determining the configuration type of the tube current and the scanning time length in the scanning parameters as a second configuration type of the median tube current and the median scanning time length according to the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance determined by the corresponding X-ray scanning equipment and the required scanning dosage.
Case where the first threshold value R1 and the second threshold value R2 are set: when the current line impedance R & gt, R1, determining the configuration type of the tube current and the scanning duration in the scanning parameters as a first configuration type of low-value tube current and high-value scanning duration according to the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance determined by the corresponding X-ray scanning equipment and the required scanning dosage; when the current line impedance is between a preset second threshold and the first threshold, namely R is greater than or equal to R2 and is less than or equal to R1, determining the configuration type of the tube current and the scanning time length in the scanning parameters as a second configuration type of the median tube current and the median scanning time length according to the capability relation between the tube current and the line impedance determined by the corresponding X-ray scanning equipment and the required scanning dose; and when the current line impedance R < 2, determining the configuration types of the tube current and the scanning time length in the scanning parameters as a third configuration type of a high-value tube current and a low-value scanning time length according to the capability relationship between the tube current and the line impedance determined by the corresponding X-ray scanning equipment and the required scanning dosage.
And step 104, determining scanning parameters required by scanning according to the configuration types of the tube current and the scanning duration.
In this step, it may be determined whether the tube current and the scanning duration in the default scanning parameters in the scanning protocol satisfy the determined configuration type of the tube current and the scanning duration, and if so, the default scanning parameters are used as the scanning parameters required for scanning; otherwise, the scanning parameters required by scanning can be reselected according to the configuration types of the tube current and the scanning time.
For example, if the tube current and the scanning duration in the default scanning parameter configured in the scanning protocol belong to a second configuration type, if it is determined in step 103 that the current line impedance is not greater than the first threshold, the default scanning parameter may be adopted in step 104; if it is determined in step 103 that the current line impedance is greater than the first threshold, in step 104, the tube current value may be decreased based on the default scanning parameter, the scanning duration may be increased, and the adjusted scanning parameter may be determined as the scanning parameter required for scanning. Further, if it is determined in step 103 that the current line impedance is smaller than the second threshold, in step 104, the tube current value may be increased based on the default scanning parameter, the scanning duration may be reduced, and the adjusted scanning parameter may be determined as the scanning parameter required for scanning.
In this embodiment, if step 101 is executed when the X-ray scanning apparatus is first installed, and it is determined that the line impedance measured in step 102 can substantially reflect the infrastructure condition of the user, if it is determined in step 104 that the configuration type of the tube current and the scanning duration determined in step 103 does not match the default scanning parameter in the scanning protocol, the default scanning parameter may be further replaced with the scanning parameter required for the reselected scanning, that is, the scanning parameter required for the reselected scanning is stored as the default scanning parameter. Otherwise, when it cannot be completely determined that the line impedance measured in step 102 can reflect the user infrastructure condition, the default scan parameters may be left unchanged, and only the scan parameters required for the reselected scan may be used as the scan parameters required for the current scan.
Similarly, if step 101 is executed during daily quality inspection of the X-ray scanning device and/or during dynamic scanning of the X-ray scanning device, a time period, such as 3 days, 4 days, 5 days, … …, 10 days, … …, may be determined, or a time period, such as 3 times, 4 times, 5 times, … …, 10 times, … …, may be determined, and a variation trend of the line impedance may be determined according to the calculated line impedance within the set period; when the variation trend reaches a required steady state and the tube current and the scanning time length in the default scanning parameters in the scanning protocol do not satisfy the configuration types of the tube current and the scanning time length determined in step 103, the scanning parameters required for the reselected scanning can be stored as the default scanning parameters. For example, if it is determined in step 104 that the configuration type of the tube current and the scan duration determined in step 103 does not match the default scan parameters in the scan protocol, and the line impedance measured for 5 consecutive days (or 3 days, 10 days, etc.) remains substantially unchanged, the scan parameters required for the reselected scan may be stored as the default scan parameters; otherwise, the default scanning parameters may be kept unchanged, and only the scanning parameters required by the reselected scanning may be used as the scanning parameters required by the current scanning.
In addition, in other embodiments, at least one set of scan parameters may be preset for each configuration type of the tube current and the scan duration, and then in step 104, an appropriate scan parameter may be selected from the set scan parameters according to the configuration type of the tube current and the scan duration determined in step 103.
In addition, in the embodiment of the application, the change trend of the line impedance can be determined according to the line impedance calculated in a preset time period or in a preset number of times; and further, according to the variation trend, the period of time when the variation trend reaches the required steady state is selected for scanning and imaging. Therefore, the X-ray scanning equipment can be used for scanning and imaging more reasonably and flexibly.
