And the S7 visualization module is used for splicing all axial imaging images to obtain a complete reconstructed image, and the actual operation content is the registration and fusion of the images.
Fig. 2 shows a block diagram of a PET imaging system and method based on linear trajectory projection data, which can be mainly divided into a detection module 100, a coincidence processing module 200, an image reconstruction module 300, a high-precision stepper motor module 400, and a visualization module 500.
Wherein the detection module 100 is connected to the coincidence processing module 200, and the detection module 100 is used for converting gamma photons into a form of scintillation pulses to facilitate subsequent data processing, and comprises a scintillation crystal module 110, a photoelectric conversion module 120, and a high-speed readout electronics module 130. The gamma photon firstly hits the scintillation crystal module 110, the scintillation crystal module 110 further comprises 2 different crystal modules LYSO crystal module 111 and BGO crystal module 112, the composite crystal converts the gamma photon from high-energy photon to visible light, the visible light generated from the scintillation crystal module 110 is input to the photoelectric conversion module 120, the photoelectric conversion module is composed of SiPM module 121 and PMT module 122, the high-energy gamma photon signal is converted into an analog electrical signal through the scintillation crystal module 110 and the photoelectric conversion module 120, then the high-speed reading electronics module 130 carries out digital sampling on the analog electrical signal, the case pulse analog signal is sampled at equal intervals, and then the case pulse is compared with the quantization level.
The sampled data is input into the coincidence processing module 200 to screen out a pulse instance signal pair satisfying a time window and an energy window, and the coincidence processing module 200 includes a stacking and screening module 210, a stacking and restoring module 220, and a data rearranging module 230. In the accumulation screening module 210, to screen out an accumulation case pulse that needs to be restored, two voltage-time pairs corresponding to the lowest quantization level value are extracted first, if the number of sampling points is greater than two, we define the first and last voltage-time pair sampling points as information data of the pulse, and then calculate the time difference between the two sampling points, if the time difference is greater than the time difference of a single pulse, it is determined as an accumulation event, otherwise, it is a single pulse signal. And restoring the accumulation event through an accumulation restoring module, and restoring the example pulse signal with accumulation into a plurality of single example pulse signals. And fitting the stacking case pulses according to a semi-Gaussian-exponential model, restoring the first stacking case in the stacking case, subtracting the restored first stacking case pulse from the stacking case pulse, and so on until all the case pulses are restored. We will then get the List sample data List-mod in the PET system, which cannot be used directly for later data reconstruction and needs to be reordered. The projection data of the system can be obtained by rearranging the data through the data rearranging module 230. Considering the two-dimensional fault condition, the LORs connecting all the detector crystals of the annular PET detection system can be regarded as a cluster of parallel projections with uniform angular distribution. As shown in FIG. 3, the solid line may be defined as a parallel projection at an angle 1 and the dashed line may be defined as a parallel projection at an angle 2. Based on this, the PET detection system projection data can be stored in sinograms at 180 °/N angular intervals, with N being the number of detection crystals over the entire ring. In each set of parallel projections, the sampling density at the edges is higher than that in the middle. For ROI reconstruction, only LORs within a distance R from the center are taken, in which case the difference in spacing between adjacent parallel projections is almost negligible.
The image reconstruction module 300 reconstructs the image data by using the upper projection data, which includes a fast analysis reconstruction module 310 and a Poisson model iteration reconstruction module 320. PET reconstruction methods can be roughly classified into analytical methods represented by FBP and iterative methods represented by ML-EM. The analytical method has the advantages of reconstruction speed, which can be applied to large-scale projects such as human body three-dimensional whole body reconstruction, and the iterative method has the advantages of introducing prior information and a noise model and having better reconstruction effect under low photon number. The image reconstruction module comprises the following specific operation steps: firstly, the fast analytic method reconstruction module 310 performs a global image reconstruction as a reconstruction starting image of a subsequent iterative method, and then the Poisson model iterative reconstruction module performs reconstruction by using the starting image to obtain a final reconstructed image.
The high-precision stepper motor module 400 performs axial movement on the detected object after the data acquisition of one section is completed by the above modules, and finally obtains the beyond-detection-range reconstructed image of each section through the registration and fusion of the images by the imaging module 500.
