When high contrast low dosage phase contrast CT image-forming device carries out sample detection, by x-ray bombardment sample, and carry out Data acquisition, to obtain CT images.Its principle can be explained as follows:
X source is a light source for launching cone-beam x-ray.Source grating 31 is located at the focus 100mm apart from X source, by There is geometry amplification factor in imaging system, therefore the area of source grating 31 is not necessarily to too greatly, as long as it is on detector 35 Projection more than detector 35 receiving area, above technique for, the smaller grating of area is easier processing and fabricating, It more can guarantee its uniformity, and it is at low cost.Source grating 31 includes diaphragm mechanism 31, for adjusting X-ray incidence range, so In imaging process below, detector 35 can be made only to receive photon in the region for having Moire fringe, diaphragm is made to block completely Directive does not have the photon in Moire fringe region, can so improve the accuracy that detector 35 gathers image, increases detector 35 Service life.
Beam-splitting optical grating 32 is arranged at X source focus 400mm, and analysis grating 34 is arranged at X source focal point 1600mm, Sample stage 4 is located at the circle centre position of turntable 2, is arranged at behind beam-splitting optical grating 32, and detector 35 is arranged at analysis grating 34 Below.
To ensure the precision of imaging system, the circular runout of turntable main shaft is no more than 10 microns, and axial float error is no more than 37 microns, turntable positioning accuracy is no more than 0.1rad.
During imaging, the X source of millimeter magnitude is divided into a series of line source by source grating 31 first, to each line source For, its Spatially coherent length at beam-splitting optical grating 32 is more than the cycle of beam-splitting optical grating 32, and such beam-splitting optical grating 32 is relevant Under optical illumination, it can be formed by hooligan's effect at 34 position of analysis grating from imaging,
Then by Lau effects, what beam-splitting optical grating 32 generated under each linear light source lighting can be mutually wrong from imaged striation A cycle is opened, is superimposed so as to noncoherent, can greatly be strengthened from the intensity of imaged striation.
Then beam-splitting optical grating 32 from imaged striation and analysis grating 34 can form Moire fringe, if beam-splitting optical grating 32 It from imaged striation and analyzes between the striped of grating 34 there are one small angle, or beam-splitting optical grating 32 is from the week of imaged striation There are small difference between phase and the cycle for analyzing grating 34, then passing behind X-ray detector 35 in analysis grating 34 It can detect cycle very big Moire fringe.
Then, X-ray can reflect when through sample, and the deviation of light can cause the torsion of moire pattern shapes Song is embodied in actual tests, is the variation of pixel light intensity.It is by measuring the variation of each image pixel intensities, i.e., available The refraction image of sample.
In one embodiment, the data acquisition of the high contrast low dosage phase contrast CT image-forming device (is imaged Process) comprise the following steps:
Step 1:Gather no sample when beam-splitting optical grating 32 be respectively at it is preset first acquisition position, second acquisition position, The data that detect of detector 35 when the 3rd acquisition position and the 4th acquisition position, using collect four groups of data as above-mentioned The background intensity of four acquisition positions;
Step 2:The data acquisition of each tomography of sample is carried out, is specifically included:
Step 2-1:Fixed beam-splitting optical grating 32 to the first gathers position;
Step 2-2:Turntable 2 is controlled to be rotated with the rotating speed of 0.5 cycle per second, control detector 35 is with rates of the 2.5ms per frame Gathered data, turntable 2 stop acquisition after rotating a circle;
Step 2-3:By micro-displacement stepping mechanism 36 beam-splitting optical grating 32 is driven to be moved to the second acquisition position, repeat step 2- 2;
Step 2-4:By micro-displacement stepping mechanism 36 beam-splitting optical grating 32 is driven to be moved to the 3rd acquisition position, repeat step 2- 2;
Step 2-5:By micro-displacement stepping mechanism 36 beam-splitting optical grating 32 is driven to be moved to the 4th acquisition position, repeat step 2- 2, complete the data acquisition of a tomography of sample;
Step 3:Control sample stage 4 is axially moveable the distance of setting, step 2 is repeated, to carry out next fan of sample The data acquisition of beam tomography;
Step 4:Data separating reconstructs:Beam-splitting optical grating 32 in each tomography of the sample gathered by above-mentioned steps is in four Collect 4 groups of data during a acquisition position are respectively combined as a sets of data, data acquisition.It is follow-up to carry out data point again It is reconstructed from CT.Wherein, data separating is carried out using the method identical with traditional PS scheme to reconstruct with CT.
The above is only the introduction to the workflow of the utility model, the utility model not to the method that is directed into Any improvement of row.
Wherein, 4 acquisition positions along arc-shaped beam-splitting optical grating 32 arc extended line arrange, i.e., 4 acquisition positions and Beam-splitting optical grating 32 is on same circumference, therefore when carrying out data acquisition, beam-splitting optical grating 32 need to be made to do movement in a curve, pass through piezoelectricity Ceramic pushing mechanism is driven, and beam-splitting optical grating 32 is promoted to move, and is carried out displacement limitation by flexure hinge mechanism, is limited beam splitting light The moving line of grid 32 is camber line, so as to realize the movement in a curve of beam-splitting optical grating 32 by micro-displacement stepping mechanism 36.
It in another embodiment, can not be turned with imaging system, the imaging of object is realized by the rotation of sample stage 4.
Although the embodiment of the utility model is disclosed as above, it is not restricted in specification and embodiment Listed utilization, it can be applied to the field of various suitable the utility model completely, for those skilled in the art, Other modification is easily achieved, therefore without departing from the general concept defined in the claims and the equivalent scope, this reality Specific details is not limited to new.
