Description

Position calibration method of collimator in three-in-one equipment upper head side shooting mode
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lateral skull imaging in three-in-one dentistry, and particularly relates to a position calibration method of a collimator in an upper lateral head shooting mode of three-in-one equipment.
Background
An X-ray cranial imaging technique is an imaging technique in which a patient's head is radiographically projected with X-rays to obtain a lateral perspective view of the patient's head. When shooting, the X-ray narrow beam is used, the absorbed dose of a human body is reduced, two collimators are arranged between the skull and the ray source, one collimator is arranged in front of the ray source and can prevent redundant rays from emitting, the other collimator is arranged in front of the skull and can limit an imaging area, the phenomenon that a divergent part images on a detector in the moving process of rays is also reduced, and the image definition is reduced. If the two collimators have deviation in installation position, the imaged image is defective and even cannot be imaged all the time, so that calibration is needed.
Japanese patent application (JP2018509950A) discloses a manual calibration method, which subjectively judges the inclination of an image according to a shot image, manually adjusts parts on a machine to perform calibration, has high error possibility, and relies on manual judgment to perform calibration, which is time-consuming, labor-consuming and low in precision; whether the installation and debugging are carried out in the factory or after-sale maintenance is carried out, the related personnel are required to have rich experience and image analysis capability, and the installation and after-sale cost is increased. The US patent of invention (US20180322665a1) discloses a dynamic image data processing, which does not calibrate the imaging position of the radiation source on the detector through the collimator in advance, but detects the imaging position during shooting, makes the imaging in the center of the detector by means of cropping, and needs to transmit the cropping information to the reconstruction module; however, the position of the machine is not adjusted, and errors of the machine are accumulated after long-time use. The Chinese invention patent (CN109431534A) discloses a self-calibration method of a ray collimator, which is characterized in that X rays cover the whole detector during calibration, and when the deviation of the position is not guaranteed, a boundary appears on the detector, so that the calculation of a deviation value is wrong; after the position deviation is corrected, the deviation on the speed is not corrected, and then the speed deviation in the subsequent movement can cause the deviation on the position; and only provides a calibration method when there is one collimator.
Mechanical automation has the advantage of being able to rely on the cooperation between the computer and the machine, not requiring an engineer to operate on the machine, and requiring only a small number of clicks on the computer interface to complete the calibration procedure. With the development of computer vision, the obtained images can be accurately analyzed to obtain mechanical errors, and deviation values can be accurately calculated. At present, the chip has stronger and higher processing capacity and higher precision, and the accurate control of machinery can be realized by means of input parameters, so that the machine becomes more and more intelligent. The two are combined, so that the time cost and the labor cost can be effectively reduced, the working efficiency is improved, and the accuracy is also improved. The position calibration method of the collimator in the head-side shooting mode of the three-in-one device is provided, and linkage of two collimators is calibrated.

Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
In the description of the present invention, it is to be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "middle", "length", "inner", "width", and the like, indicate orientations or positional relationships for convenience in describing the present invention and simplifying the description, but do not indicate or imply that the referenced components or elements must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
Under the head side shooting mode, in order to concentrate the ray irradiation scope, fixed shooting region, two collimators have been installed on machinery, the first collimator mounted position is close to the ray source, the second collimator mounted position is close to the detector, because we use the narrow detector, the formation of image scope is little, in the shooting process, if the initial position and the movement speed of first collimator, second collimator and detector motion are asynchronous, can cause wrong regional formation of image, ray blockage, the condition that can not form of image even takes place. In order to avoid the phenomenon, the coordinated movement conditions of the first collimator, the second collimator and the detector need to be calibrated at intervals, the lateral position calibration takes the detector as a reference, the movement initial position S and the movement speed V of the first collimator and the second collimator are calibrated, and during the calibration, related parameters are calculated mainly by means of image analysis. In the process, the included modules are mainly an image analysis part and a calculation part. The image analysis is mainly to perform binarization and edge detection on the obtained image after the noise of the image is reduced, so as to determine the imaging position of the transmitted X-ray on the detector. The calculation module calculates the position of a frame of image in the sequence in the reconstructed image by using a lateral position reconstruction algorithm, so as to know the distance of the moved pixels. In order to avoid the error of the magnification value, the moving distance of the collimator is not calculated by using a similar triangle, but the ratio of the moving pixel distance under the standard condition and the moving pixel distance under the actual condition is calculated, and the ratio of the speed is calculated, so that the deviation value of the speed is obtained.
After the image analysis module is used for obtaining the imaging center position, the calculation module is used for calculating the path traveled by the collimator when the image is shot, and the path difference is obtained by comparing the path traveled by the collimator with the path traveled by the detector. In a certain time t, the speed difference is obtained by dividing the travel difference by the time, namely the speed deviation value which is obtained by us. And analyzing the imaging position on the shot first frame image, comparing the imaging position with the imaging position of the first frame image under the standard condition to obtain a position difference on the image, comparing the position difference with the pixel path traveled by the time t to obtain the position deviation caused by the movement time of the first frame image under the condition of the initial speed, converting the position deviation into a physical distance, and calculating the initial position deviation.
Example (b):
as shown in fig. 1, in the head-side photographing mode, if it is found that the image is blocked or cannot be imaged, it is difficult to distinguish between the problem of the first collimator C1 and the problem of the second collimator C2, so that the two collimators are calibrated during the calibration process.
