ので説明は省略する。(E) Embodiments In the embodiments shown below, the present invention is applied to a multi-orbit tomography apparatus that can take various orbits. In order to be able to take various trajectories, it is necessary to combine rotational motion and linear motion, so to express it schematically, as shown in FIG. This is held by the rotary motion mechanism 8 that rotates the linear motion mechanism 9. This second
Although not shown in the figure, the film 2 is connected to the X-ray tube l via a connecting lever that is rotatably supported around the center point 0 (see Figure 1), and the X-ray tube l is thinly wound. When the film 2 moves on various orbits such as an orbit, the film 2 moves symmetrically about a point O with respect to the movement of the X-ray tube 1. A mechanism for achieving such relative motion has been commonly used in tomography apparatuses, so its explanation will be omitted.

左側の回路がこの発明によって付加された回路である。When the xII tube 1 moves in this manner, X-ray exposure is controlled by a control circuit as shown in FIG. That is, in FIG. 3, the X-ray tube power supply device 11 connected to the power supply 10 is for pulsed X-ray exposure and generates a pulsed high voltage. The X-ray tube is designated here by 12. The circuit to the left of the dotted line is the circuit added according to the present invention.

ため距離が短いとき単位時間当りのパルス数が少なくな
ってX線曝射時間が短くなり、距離が長いとき単位時間
当りのパルス数が多くなってX線曝射時間が長くなる。The orbital radius r of the X-ray tube is determined by a detector 1 such as a potentiometer.
3, and a signal (ar) proportional to the radius r is fed to the signal (ar), which is proportional to the radius r, to obtain (ar)2. On the other hand, L corresponding to the height L
The height setting circuit 15 is set in advance so as to generate an output of 2, and a signal of (ar)2+L21, which is the sum of (ar)2 and L2, is input to the pulse number setting circuit 16. This pulse number setting circuit 16 is an A/D
It includes a conversion circuit and produces a numerical output inversely proportional to the input signal as a pulse number setting output. Reference clock generation circuit 18
A clock signal is output as shown in FIG. 4A (or FIG. 5A) from Each time the pulse number setting output value is reached, an exposure signal of a constant width is generated as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C. Therefore, the exposure interval changes in inverse proportion to the square of the distance between the X-ray tube and the film (1 (a r)" + L2), and the smaller this distance, the wider the interval (see Figure 4). B), the larger the distance, the narrower it becomes (Fig. 4 C). Therefore, when the distance is short, the number of pulses per unit time is small and the X-ray exposure time is shortened, and when the distance is long, the number of pulses per unit time is large. This increases the X-ray exposure time.
この例ではパルスX線のパルス幅を一定としパルス数を

うに構成する。In this example, the pulse width of the pulsed X-ray is kept constant and the X-ray exposure time per unit time is changed by changing the number of pulses, but the pulse width may be changed while keeping the number of pulses constant. To do this, pulse number setting circuit 1
6, a pulse width setting circuit that generates a pulse width setting output with a numerical value proportional to the input signal 2 ((ar) + L) is used, and the exposure signal generation circuit 17 counts the clock signal and outputs the pulse width setting. It is configured to generate an exposure signal (FIG. 5B, C) with a pulse width corresponding to the pulse width.

ように広くなる。2 (Car)+L) In other words, the pulse width of the exposure signal of the exposure signal generation circuit 17 changes in proportion to the square of the distance between the X-ray tube and the film, and the clock signal changes as shown in FIG. 5A. If this distance is small, the pulse width becomes narrow as shown in FIG. 5B, and if it is large, the pulse width becomes wide as shown in FIG. 5C.
このようにパルスX線曝射を行ない、そのパルス数また

わち、上述した到達線量Iを表わす式は、Koを定数、
mAをX線管電流、SをX線曝射時間、KVをX線管電
圧とすると、つぎのように書き換えることができる。By performing pulsed X-ray irradiation in this way and controlling the number of pulses or pulse width, the X-ray irradiation time per unit time is changed in proportion to the square of the distance. The delivered dose can be kept constant regardless of changes in the distance between the X-ray tube and the film. In other words, the above-mentioned formula expressing the achieved dose I is such that Ko is a constant and
If mA is the X-ray tube current, S is the X-ray exposure time, and KV is the X-ray tube voltage, it can be rewritten as follows.
I = K ’−mA−3−KVN/((a r)”+
L2)但し、a=L/L。I = K'-mA-3-KVN/((a r)"+
L2) However, a=L/L.
そこでX線曝射時間Sをつぎの式に示すように変数rの
2乗に比例して制御するようにし、S=に″・ ((a

但し K T+ 、定数
このとき他のX線条件を一定とすればフィルム面到達線
量Iは、
I =K ’ eK” @mA*KVNとなって半径r
つまり距離の変化に無関係となるからである。Therefore, the X-ray exposure time S is controlled in proportion to the square of the variable r as shown in the following formula, and S = ″・((a
r)+L) However, if K T+ is a constant and other X-ray conditions are constant, the dose I reaching the film surface is I = K'eK" @mA*KVN, and the radius r
In other words, it is unrelated to changes in distance.
なお、上記ではX線パルス数を制御する例とX線パルス
幅を制御する例とを示したが、両者を併用するようにし
てもよい。Note that although an example in which the number of X-ray pulses is controlled and an example in which the width of the X-ray pulses is controlled are shown above, both may be used in combination.
また、上記の実施例では、フィルム面への到達線量が常
に一定になるよう単位時間当りのX線曝射時間を制御し
ているが、臨床的にはその到達線量を一定とせず多少加
減した方がよい場合もあり、そのような場合に対応して
制御を行なうよう構成してもよい。In addition, in the above example, the X-ray exposure time per unit time is controlled so that the dose reaching the film surface is always constant, but clinically, the dose reaching the film is not constant and may be adjusted somewhat. There may be cases where it is better, and the configuration may be such that control is performed in response to such cases.

In addition, it is easy to put it into practical use because it is only necessary to add a few control circuits to the configuration.
