Description

Ray detection device, ray detection method and CT image reconstruction method
Technical Field
The present disclosure relates to the field of medical equipment technologies, and in particular, to a radiation detection apparatus, a radiation detection method, a CT image reconstruction method, an electronic apparatus, and a storage medium.
Background
An electronic Computer Tomography (CT) imaging system uses precisely collimated X-ray beams, gamma rays, ultrasonic waves, etc. to scan the cross sections of a human body one by one together with a detector with high sensitivity, has the characteristics of fast scanning time, clear images, etc., and can be used for the examination of various diseases.
In the CT imaging system, the focus position (relative position to the detector array) of the X-ray source provides the most basic reference frame for CT image reconstruction, and the quality of the CT image is guaranteed on the premise. In an ideal CT imaging system model, the focus position of an X-ray source is fixed and invariable; however, in practical situations, the focal position may move from moment to moment as the scanning scene and the state of the X-ray tube itself change. Wherein, the direction of movement includes two: azimuth direction and slice direction. In order to ensure that the quality of the CT image is not affected by the movement of the focus, the focus position in the actual scanning process must be compared with the focus position in the ideal model and corrected, so as to reconstruct and obtain an accurate CT image. Therefore, there is a need for a method to track the focus position of an X-ray source during a CT scan.
The detection of the focal position of the X-ray source in the related art is usually achieved by an algorithm estimation method and a device measurement method. The algorithm estimation method is to estimate the change rule of the focal position in advance on software according to the scanning parameters and the characteristics of the X-ray bulb tube, belongs to indirect estimation, and has the defects of inaccurate real-time performance, complex algorithm and large computation amount. The device measurement method is to track the focus position of an X-ray source in real time during the CT scanning process by using a Reference Detector (RD for short) device on hardware. However, due to the influence of the change of the scanning environment, the response of the detector changes, so that air data (the ray intensity when the ray scans the air) needs to be acquired to correct the response of the detector, but the dose of the ray used when the air is scanned and the patient is scanned is different, and meanwhile, the dose fed back by the CT imaging system has an error with the dose of the real ray, so that the ray needs to be corrected in an air mode. The detection of the focus position of the existing X-ray source cannot carry out air correction on rays, so that large errors are generated in subsequent reconstructed images.
At present, no effective solution is provided for the problem that the ray detection device in the related technology cannot perform air correction on the ray.

This embodiment provides a radiation detection apparatus, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a radiation detection apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application, and as shown in fig. 1, the apparatus includes: the shielding assembly 100 is positioned between the detection assembly 110 and the bulb tube, wherein the shielding assembly 100 is used for shielding at least a part of rays emitted by the bulb tube to the detection assembly 110; within the moving range of the focus of the bulb, the detection surface of the detection assembly 110 is divided into: corresponding to a first receiving area 111 where the received ray is always unobstructed by the obstructing component 100, a second receiving area 112 other than the first receiving area 111.
In the present embodiment, when the bulb emits a ray to the detection component 110, the shielding component 100 has a projection at least in the second receiving region 112, and the area of the projection in the second receiving region 112 is smaller than the area of the second receiving region 112.
When the focal point of the tube moves, since the shielding component 100 can shield at least a part of rays emitted from the tube to the detecting component 110, the detecting surface of the detecting component 110 has an area which is not always shielded by the shielding component 100, and the intensity value of the rays received by the area is unchanged, therefore, the detecting surface of the detecting component 110 can be divided into: corresponding to a first receiving area 111, in which the intensity value of the received ray is constant, and a second receiving area 112, which is other than the first receiving area 111.
The shutter assembly 100 may be made of a material having high attenuation characteristics of radiation, such as tungsten and lead; the shielding assembly 100 may attenuate at least a portion of the radiation emitted by the bulb toward the detection assembly 110 and may also shield at least a portion of the radiation emitted by the bulb toward the detection assembly 110.
Since the focus of the bulb tube, when moving, may affect the dose of the ray projected to the shielding assembly 100 by the bulb tube, and then affect the projection area of the shielding assembly 100 in the second receiving region 112, and finally affect the intensity value of the ray received in the second receiving region 112, and the ray received in the first receiving region 111 is not shielded by the shielding assembly 100, the focus position of the bulb tube may be captured according to the variation relationship between the intensity value of the ray received in the second receiving region 112 and the intensity value of the ray received in the first receiving region 111. For example: assuming that the intensity value of the ray received in the first receiving area 111 is I1(t), the intensity value of the ray received in the second receiving area 112 is I2(t), and Radio (t) is I2(t)/I1(t), when the focal point of the tube moves, I2(t) changes while I1(t) does not change, and then Radio (t) also changes, the focal point position of the tube at time t0 can be determined by searching the corresponding relationship between the Radio (t) and the focal point position of the tube according to the intensity value ratio of the ray emitted from the tube to the detecting component 110 at time t 0. In other embodiments, the focal position of the tube may also be tracked by other formulas, such as Radio (t) ═ I1(t) -I2(t))/I1(t), Radio (t) ═ I1(t) -I2(t))/(I1(t) + I2 (t)).
Fig. 2 is a schematic diagram of a projection of a ray emitted by the bulb on the detection assembly 110 along the Z-axis direction, as shown in fig. 2, AB is a maximum movable range of a focal point of the bulb, and when the focal point moves in the AB range and emits the ray to the detection assembly 110, when passing through the shielding assembly 100, a projection area of the shielding assembly 100 changes in the FG range, that is, an intensity value of the ray received in the FG range changes, but in the EF range, the projection area of the shielding assembly 100 does not change, and an intensity value of the ray received in the EF range does not change. Therefore, the FG region is the second receiving area 112 of the detecting element 110, and the EF region is the first receiving area 111 of the detecting element 110.
In one embodiment, the shutter assembly 100 includes at least one of: solid subassembly, the cavity of sheltering from, the subassembly is sheltered from in L shape, and wherein, solid area of sheltering from the subassembly is less than the area of detecting the subassembly, and the cavity shelters from the area of the hollow portion of subassembly and is less than the area of detecting the subassembly.
In other embodiments, the shielding assembly 100 may also be one of a cross-shaped shielding assembly, a circular shielding assembly or a triangular shielding assembly, and may also be any one of a star-shaped shielding assembly or a polygonal shielding assembly.
Fig. 3 is a schematic structural diagram of a radiation detection apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 3, in one embodiment, the shielding component 100 is a hollow shielding component, wherein a hollow portion of the hollow shielding component may be rectangular, in the case that the shielding component 100 is a hollow shielding component, the first receiving area 111 is located in the second receiving area 112, and when a ray emitted from the tube to the detection component 110 passes through the hollow shielding component, projections of the hollow shielding component are distributed in both the x direction and the y direction of the second receiving area 112, and are not projected in the first receiving area 111, so that position information of the focal position of the tube in the x direction and the y direction can be determined according to the above-mentioned correspondence relationship between the Radio (t) and the focal position of the tube.
Fig. 4 is a schematic structural diagram of a radiation detection apparatus according to another preferred embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 4, in one embodiment, the shielding assembly 100 is an L-shaped shielding assembly, the detecting assembly 110 further includes a third receiving area 113 and a fourth receiving area 114, the first receiving area 111 and the third receiving area 113 are disposed along a first direction, the second receiving area 112 and the fourth receiving area 114 are disposed along the first direction, the first receiving area 111 and the fourth receiving area 114 are disposed along a second direction, the second receiving area 112 and the third receiving area 113 are disposed along the second direction, wherein the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, when the focal point of the bulb moves along the first direction, at least a part of the rays received in the third receiving area 113 are shielded by the shielding component 100, when the focal point moves in the second direction, at least a portion of the rays received in the fourth receiving area 114 are blocked by the blocking assembly 100.
In the case that the shielding assembly 100 is an L-shaped shielding assembly, the protruding portions of the L-shaped shielding assembly in the first direction and the second direction may have a certain width, so as to ensure that at least a part of rays emitted from the bulb tube to the detection assembly 110 can be shielded in the first direction and the second direction.
In this embodiment, the first direction may be an x direction, and the second direction may be a y direction, and the detection component 110 may determine the position of the focal point of the tube in the x direction according to the intensity value of the ray received by the first receiving area 111 and the intensity value of the ray received by the third receiving area 113; the detection component 110 determines the position of the focal point of the tube in the y direction according to the intensity value of the ray received by the first receiving area 111 and the intensity value of the ray received by the fourth receiving area 114, and the position of the focal point of the tube can be determined according to the position of the focal point of the tube in the x direction and the position of the focal point of the tube in the y direction. For example: assuming that the intensity value of the received ray in the first receiving area 111 is I1(t), the intensity value of the received ray in the third receiving area 113 is I3(t), and the intensity value of the received ray in the fourth receiving area is I4(t), let RadioX (t) be I3(t)/I1(t), when the focal point of the tube moves in the x direction, I3(t) changes while I1(t) does not change, and then the RadioX (t) also changes; when the focal point of the tube moves in the y direction, I4(t) changes while I1(t) does not change, and then the radio y (t) also changes; according to the intensity value ratio of the rays emitted from the tube to the detection assembly 110 at the time t0, the positions of the focal point of the tube in the x direction and the y direction at the time t0 can be determined by searching the corresponding relationship among the radio x (t), the radio y (t) and the focal point position of the tube.
In the embodiment, by calculating the first receiving area 111 and the third receiving area 113 arranged along the x direction, and the first receiving area 111 and the fourth receiving area 114 arranged along the y direction, the intensity value variation value of the ray emitted by the bulb to the detecting component 110 attenuated by the shielding component 100 can be captured, the position of the focus of the bulb is tracked through the intensity value variation value, and the technical effect of tracking the focus position of the bulb in real time can be achieved through the relationship between the intensity value variation value and the focus position of the bulb.

In this embodiment, at least a part of the shielding component 100 overlaps with the moving range of the focal point of the tube in the vertical direction, so that the shielding component 100 can shield at least a part of the rays emitted from the tube to the detecting component 110, and further, the subsequent detecting component 110 can be divided into the first receiving area 111 and the second receiving area 112 according to whether the received rays can be shielded by the shielding component 110, thereby achieving the technical effect of tracking the position information of the focal point of the tube through the first receiving area 111 and the second receiving area 112.
The electronic device provided by the embodiment of the application can be applied to a medical image processing system, and the medical image processing system can comprise a medical image scanning device and the electronic device.
The medical image scanning device may be any one or more of a positron emission tomography-electron tomography system (PET-CT), a single photon emission computed tomography-electron computed tomography system (SPET-CT), and the like.
The embodiments of the present application will be described and illustrated below with reference to a medical image scanning apparatus as a CT imaging system.
In the present embodiment, the CT imaging system 500 includes a couch 510 and a scanning assembly 520. Wherein the examination table 510 is adapted to carry a subject to be examined. The examination couch 510 is movable so that a portion to be examined of the subject is moved to a position suitable for detection, such as the position indicated as 530 in fig. 5. The scanning region 520 has a radiation source 521, a detector 522 and a radiation detection device 523 of the above-described embodiment.
The radiation source 521 may be configured to emit radiation to a region to be examined of a subject for generating scan data of a medical image. The portion to be examined of the subject may include a substance, tissue, organ, specimen, body, or the like, or any other combination.

In this embodiment, a first intensity value of a ray emitted by the bulb tube when the air is CT scanned and a second intensity value of the ray emitted by the bulb tube when the target object is CT scanned may be detected by the ray detection device, so that a ratio of a dose of the ray when the ray detection device performs CT scanning on the air to a dose of the ray when the target object is CT scanned may be obtained, and then the target object scan data may be corrected to obtain the target object scan data after air correction at one or more angles.

The detection of the focal position of the X-ray source in the related art is usually achieved by an algorithm estimation method and a device measurement method. The algorithm estimation method is to estimate the change rule of the focal position in advance on software according to the scanning parameters and the characteristics of the X-ray bulb tube, belongs to indirect estimation, and has the defects of inaccurate real-time performance, complex algorithm and large computation amount. The device measurement method is to track the focus position of an X-ray source in real time during the CT scanning process by using a Reference Detector (RD for short) device on hardware. However, due to the influence of the change of the scanning environment, the response of the detector changes, so that air data (the ray intensity when the ray scans the air) needs to be acquired to correct the response of the detector, but the dose of the ray used when the air is scanned and the patient is scanned is different, and meanwhile, the dose fed back by the CT imaging system has an error with the dose of the real ray, so that the ray needs to be corrected in an air mode. The detection of the focus position of the existing X-ray source cannot carry out air correction on rays, so that large errors are generated in subsequent reconstructed images.
In the related art, the air correction of the ray is usually performed by performing air correction on scan data of the target object by using an intensity value and an edge channel value of the ray received by the detector when scanning the air at one or more angles, wherein the edge channel value is obtained by detecting the ray through edge detector channels located at two sides of the imaging detector, however, the edge detector channels may be blocked by the patient, so that the edge channel value detected by the edge detector channels is wrong, and further the air correction is wrong. Therefore, the reliability of air correction of scanning data of the target object is low and the error is large by arranging the edge detector channels on two sides of the imaging detector to detect the edge channel values.
Compared with the related art, the embodiment of the application has the following advantages:
(1) this application embodiment is through setting up ray detection device lieing in between ray source and the detector for confirm the focus position of ray source and detect the intensity value of the ray that the ray source launched, wherein, ray detection device is close to the ray source setting, has guaranteed that ray detection device can not shelter from the ray source and to the detector transmission ray, has also guaranteed that the ray that ray detection device received is not sheltered from by patient, has realized improving the technical effect who carries out air correction's reliability and rate of accuracy to target object scanning data.
(2) According to the embodiment of the application, the ray detection device detects the first intensity value of the ray emitted by the bulb tube when the CT scanning is carried out on the air and the second intensity value of the ray emitted by the bulb tube when the CT scanning is carried out on the target object, the scanning data of the target object is corrected, and the technical effects that the ray detection device can be simultaneously used for tracking the focal position of the bulb tube and carrying out the air correction on the ray emitted by the bulb tube are achieved.
