Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for correcting an image obtained by a photosensitive device comprising a matrix of photosensitive points, for example made by semiconductor material deposition techniques. It applies mainly, but not exclusively, to the photosensitive devices used for the detection of radiological images.
- the invention finds particular utility when the photosensitive device is subjected to an electromagnetic disturbance.
- a scintillator screen for converting the X-ray radiation into light radiation in the wavelength band at which the photosensitive spots are sensitive.
- the photosensitive spots that form these matrices generally comprise a photosensitive element associated with an element that performs a switch function.
- the photosensitive dot is mounted between an inline conductor and a column conductor.
- the photosensitive device then comprises a plurality of photosensitive points arranged in matrix or bar.
- the photosensitive element is commonly constituted by a diode, connected in series with the switch element.
- the switch element can be for example a so-called switching diode whose "closed” or “on” state corresponds to the polarization which puts it in direct conduction, and whose "open” or “blocked” state corresponds to its polarization in reverse.
- the two diodes are mounted with opposite directions of conduction, in a so-called "head-to-tail” configuration.
- Such an arrangement is well known, in particular from the French patent application 86 14058 (Publication No.
- the amorphous semiconductor material produces remanence. This is related to its amorphous structure which has a large number of traps, much more than in crystalline materials. These traps are structural defects that extend over the entire bandgap. They retain charges generated during a useful image, especially during an exposure of photosensitive points to light radiation. The material stores an image corresponding to a given light radiation and renders charges relating to this image during the reading of the next image or of several subsequent images. The quality of the images suffers.
- the semiconductor components used in a matrix or a strip of photosensitive points are not all identical and the photosensitive device incorporating this matrix or this strip then inherently has inhomogeneities which result in altered zones that vary. in time.
- a correction of the useful image is carried out from a so-called offset image known under the French black image denomination, taken for example at the beginning of a cycle. of operation or following a useful image capture.
- This offset image is the image obtained while the photosensitive device is exposed to a signal of zero intensity and corresponds to a kind of background image.
- the offset image varies according to the electrical state of the components of the photosensitive spots and the dispersion of their electrical characteristics.
- the useful image is that read while the photosensitive device has been exposed to a useful signal which corresponds for example to an exposure of the scintillator to X-radiation. It includes the offset image.
- the correction of the useful image then consists in subtracting the offset image from the useful image. This correction is reliable only if the offset image has not varied between the moment it was taken and the moment when the useful image is taken. This implies that the photosensitive spots are in the same electrical state just before the offset image is taken and just before that of the useful image.
- the photosensitive spots are generally sensitive to electromagnetic disturbances.
- the electromagnetic disturbances are inevitable. This is for example the case when the photosensitive device is used simultaneously with an electrocautery as part of an interventional radiography. Therefore, the electrical state of the photosensitive spots is likely to vary between the useful picture taking and the offset picture taking. If the disturbance is permanent and periodic, streaks may appear on the image formed by the photosensitive device, unless the frequency of the electromagnetic disturbance is very slow compared to the imaging frequency.
- a third solution is to correct the image obtained by filtering, for example by means of image correction software.
- filtering can lead to losing or modifying medical information.
- An object of the invention is in particular to overcome all or part of the aforementioned drawbacks by proposing a method for correcting an image obtained by a photosensitive device of the impact of any type of electromagnetic disturbance without adding any constraint in the design of the photosensitive device .
- the subject of the invention is a method of correcting an image obtained by a photosensitive device comprising photosensitive points organized in a matrix of NI lines by Nc columns. Each photosensitive point is capable of accumulating charges when exposed to light radiation.
- the invention makes it possible to effectively correct an image obtained by a matrix of photosensitive points subjected to an electromagnetic disturbance, in particular when this disturbance is permanent and periodic.
- FIG. 2 a second example of passive photosensitive device to which the invention can be applied
- FIG. 3 an example of an active photosensitive device to which the invention can be applied
- FIG. 4 possible steps for the correction method according to the invention.
- FIG. 5 possible sub-steps for a line-by-line reading of charges accumulated in a photosensitive device
- FIG. 6 possible sub-steps for determining offset signals to be subtracted from useful signals.
- FIG. 1 represents a simplified diagram of a photosensitive device 1 comprising a matrix 2 conventionally organized.
- the matrix 2 comprises photosensitive points Pi to P 9 , each formed by a photosensitive diode Dp and a switching diode Dc connected in series in a back-to-back configuration.
- the matrix comprises in-line conductors Y 1 to Y 3 crossed with column conductors X 1 to X 3 , with at each crossing a photosensitive point Pi to P 9 connected between an on-line conductor Y 1 to Y 3 and a column conductor Xi at X 3 .
- the photosensitive points Pi to P 9 are thus arranged along lines L 1 to L 3 and columns Ch to Cl 3 . They are also called pixels.
- the photosensitive device 1 comprises a line control circuit 3, whose outputs SY-i, SY 2 and SY 3 are respectively connected to the line conductors Y 1 , Y 2 and Y 3 .
- the line control circuit 3 has different elements, not shown, such as, for example, clock circuit, switching circuits, shift register, which enable it to perform a sequential addressing of the line conductors Yi to Y 3 .
- the photosensitive device 1 further comprises a voltage source 4, delivering to the line control circuit 3 a voltage V, for defining the amplitude of so-called reading pulses applied to the line conductors Y 1 to Y 3 .
- the two diodes Dp and Dc are interconnected either by their anode, as shown in Figure 1, or by their cathode.
- the cathode of the photodiode Dp is connected to a column conductor Xi to X 3, and the cathode of the switching diode Dc is connected to a row conductor Yi to Y 3.
- the two diodes Dp and Dc are designed so that the capacitance presented by the photodiode Dp is the strongest, of the order for example of 50 times.
- the two diodes Dp and Dc of each photosensitive point Pi to P 9 are polarized in reverse. In this state, they each constitute a capacity. Charges are generated in the photodiode Dp by the exposure of the photosensitive point Pi to P 9 to which it belongs. These charges, whose quantity is a function of the intensity of exposure, accumulate at a point A on the node formed at the junction point of the two diodes Dp and Dc.
- the reading of the photosensitive points Pi to P 9 is carried out line by line, simultaneously for all the photosensitive points connected to the same line conductor Yi to Y 3 .
- the line control circuit 3 applies to each line conductor Y 1 to Y 3 addressed, a reading pulse of a given amplitude.
- In-line drivers that are not addressed are maintained at a reference potential V r or idle potential.
- This reference potential V r is for example the mass. It can be the same potential that is applied to column drivers Xi to
- the possible accumulation of charges at the point A of a photosensitive point Pi to P 9 causes at this point a decrease in the voltage, that is to say a decrease in the reverse bias voltage of the photodiode Dp.
- the application of a reading pulse to an on-line conductor Y 1 to Y 3 has the effect of restoring to the potential of the point A of all the photosensitive points connected to this line conductor, the level of polarization that it had before exposure to useful light radiation. This results in a circulation in each of the column conductors Xi to X 3 of a current proportional to the accumulated charges at the corresponding point A.
- the column conductors X 1 to X 3 are connected to a read circuit CL comprising, in the example of FIG. 1, an integrator circuit 5, a multiplexer circuit 6, a video amplifier 7 and an analog-digital converter 8.
- integrator circuit 5 comprises as many amplifiers as column conductors Xi to X 3, or in the example of FIG. 1, three amplifiers Gi to G 3 . It further comprises an integration capacitance Ci to C 3 and a switch element I 1 to I 3 for each amplifier Gi to G 3 .
- Each column conductor X 1 to X 3 is connected to a negative input "-" of an amplifier Gi to G 3 mounted as an integrator.
- An integration capacitance Ci to C 3 is connected between the negative input "-" and an output Si to S 3 of each amplifier.
- a second "+" input of each amplifier Gi to G 3 is connected to a potential which, in the example of FIG. 1, is the reference potential V 1 -. As a result, this potential is imposed on all conductors in column X 1 to X 3 .
- a reset switch element I 1 to I 3 is connected in parallel with each integration capacitor C 1 to C 3 .
- the switch elements I 1 to I 3 are, for example, MOS type transistors.
- the integrator circuit 5 thus transforms the charges flowing on the conductors in column X 1 to X 3 in voltages.
- the outputs S 1 to S 3 of the amplifiers G 1 to G 3 are connected to inputs Ent-i to Ent 3 of the multiplexer circuit 6.
- the multiplexer circuit 6 is for example formed of a shift register with parallel inputs and serial output which can be of the charge-coupled type, more commonly called CCD. of the English expression "Charged-Coupled Device”. This conventional arrangement makes it possible to deliver "in series” and line after line (from L 1 to L 3 ), at the output of the multiplexer 6, voltages which represent the charges accumulated at the points A of all the photosensitive points P 1 to P 9 . These voltages are called SM multiplex signal.
- the multiplexed signal SM can then be amplified by the video amplifier 7 and converted into a digital signal SN by an analog-to-digital converter 8. It should be noted that it is also known, in order to fulfill the switch function which, in the example of FIG. 1, is held by the switching diode Dc, to use a transistor. The latter has a greater complexity of connection with the diode, but it offers advantages in the quality of its "passing" state.
- FIG. 2 diagrammatically illustrates a photosensitive device 1 'which differs from that of FIG. 1 mainly in that it comprises a matrix 2' in which the switching diodes Dc are replaced by transistors T, for example made by means of FIGS. deposit of films in thin layers.
- TFT Thin Film Transistor
- the transistor T is connected by its source S to the cathode of the photodiode Dp, that is to say at point A its gate G is connected to the line conductor Y 1 to Y 3 to which the photosensitive point P 1 to P 9 belongs, and its drain D is connected to the column conductor X 1 to X 3 to which the photosensitive point P 1 to P 9 belongs.
- the anodes of all the photodiodes Dp are connected to an output SY 4 of the line control circuit 3.
- the output SY 4 delivers a so-called polarization voltage V p0 iar, negative with respect to the reference potential V r or mass, of the order for example - 5 volts.
- This bias voltage V p0 serves to constitute the reverse bias of the photodiodes Dp.
- the line control circuit 3 receives for example this bias voltage of a power source 13.
- FIGS. 1 and 2 describe exemplary embodiments of photosensitive devices 1 and 1 'in which the photosensitive points Pi to P 9 are said to be passive.

- the same point A can be defined between the source S of the transistor T 1 and the cathode of the photodiode Dp.
- This point A is further connected to the gate G of the second transistor T 2 of the same photosensitive point P 1 to P 4 .
- the source S of this transistor T 2 is connected to the source S of the third transistor T 3 of the same photosensitive point P 1 to P 4 and the drains D of all the transistors T 2 are connected to a voltage source 32 subjecting the drains D at a supply potential V dd -
- the third transistor T 3 of each photosensitive point P 1 to P 4 is further connected by its gate G to the line conductor Y 1 or Y 2 of the line L 1 or L 2 to which belongs the photosensitive point P 1 to P 4 considered and its drain D to the conductor in column X 1 or X 2 of the column Cl 1 or Cl 2 to which belongs the photosensitive point P 1 to P 4 considered.
- the transistors T 1 make it possible to return the photosensitive points P 1 to P 4 in their original state, that is to say in the state they had before being exposed to radiation. More particularly, the transistors T 1 make it possible, when a reset pulse is sent by the line control circuit 3 on a resetting conductor Y RAZ1 or Y RA z2, to reduce the potential of the point A of all the photosensitive points P 1 to P 4 of the line L 1 or L 2 considered at the starting potential, in this case the resetting potential V RAZ .
- Transistors T 2 enable to isolate the points A of the conductors in column Xi and X 2 .
- the transistors T 3 make it possible to connect the sources S of the different transistors T 2 to the column conductors Xi or X 2 to which the corresponding transistors T 3 are connected.
- the reading of the photosensitive points Pi to P 4 is also performed line by line.
- the line control circuit 3 successively applies a read pulse to each line conductor Y 1 and Y 2 .
- the voltages at the point A of the photosensitive points Pi to P 4 belonging to the line L 1 or L 2 which is read are then copied onto the column conductors Xi and X 2 via the transistors T 2 .
- the photosensitive device 1 "does not include integrating circuit, the charges accumulated at point A are integrated in voltage at the transistor T 2.
- Xi columnar conductors and X 2 are directly connected to the inputs Enti and Ent 2 of the multiplexer 6.
- the multiplexer 6 outputs a multiplexed signal SM which can also be amplified by a video amplifier 7 and digitized by an analog-digital converter 8 to provide a digital signal SN .
- FIG. 3 is made with reference to a photosensitive device 1 "comprising only two lines and two columns of photosensitive dots. ⁇ br/> ⁇ br/> Naturally, the invention applies to matrices of much greater capacity. more than three transistors and the supply voltages V dd and reset V RA z may differ for each photosensitive point.

- these charges can be accumulated by any photosensitive element. , for example phototransistors.
- FIG. 4 illustrates possible steps for the correction method according to the invention.
- the correction method applies for example to an image obtained by one of the photosensitive devices 1, 1 'and 1 "described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3. It may comprise a first step E 1 acquisition of an image in which each photosensitive point Pi to P 9 is capable of accumulating charges due to an exposure of the matrix 2, 2 'or 2 "to a useful light radiation. for example from a scintillator receiving X-rays having passed through a part of the body of a patient whose radiological image is to be obtained.

- the signals of one line are read concurrently for all vertical Ch Cl 3 of the matrix 2, 2 'or 2 ".
- the principle of successively acquiring for each line a useful signal and an offset signal is known as correlated double sampling, the useful signals and the offset signals are for example constructed from digital signal SN from the analog-to-digital converter 8.
- Useful signals and offset signals are then considered column by column. This column by column treatment makes it possible to take into account the fact that an electromagnetic disturbance does not necessarily have a uniform effect on the entire matrix.
- the useful signals form a discrete signal X reel ⁇ n) and the offset signals form a discrete signal 0F (n) .
- OFX ⁇ n signals called fictitious offset signals, are determined by correcting the 0F (n) signals.
- the relation (1) makes it possible not only to correct the red X ⁇ n signals) of the offset signals 0F (n), but also charges generated due of an electromagnetic disturbance, the set of corrected useful signals s ⁇ n) then makes it possible to build a corrected image.
- FIG. 5 illustrates a particular embodiment of step E 2 of reading line by line.
- the step E 2 comprises the following successive sub-steps, these substeps being successively repeated for each row of the matrix 2, 2 'or 2 "to be read: a substep E 20 i of reading the accumulated charges at each photosensitive point Pi to P 9 of the line in question, a substep E 202 for converting these charges into analog signals representative of these charges, and a substep E 203 for digitizing these signals.
- the substep E 20 i for reading the charges of a line comprises sending a read pulse on the line conductor Y 1 to Y 3 of said line, according to the invention, the substeps E 20 i to E 203 are repeated a second time for each line before considering the next line
- This handover photosensitive points in their original electrical state is performed simultaneously with the substep E 20 i for reading charges for a photosensitive device comprising passive photosensitive spots, such as for example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2
- the reset can be carried out by sending a resetting pulse on the resetting conductor Y RA zi or Y RA z2 of the considered line.
- the repetition of substeps E 20 i to E 203 is performed by using a counter Cpt whose value indicates a current read iteration number.
- this counter Cpt takes only two values, for example '1' for the first reading and '2' for the second reading.
- the substep E 2 oi can thus be preceded by a substep E 204 of initialization of the value of the counter Cpt, for example to the value '1'.
- a test is performed in a substep E 205 to determine whether the value of the counter Cpt is equal to the value '2'.
- the value of the counter Cpt is incremented by one unit in a sub-step E 20 6 and the substeps E 20 i to E 20 5 are then reiterated. If the value of the counter Cpt is equal to the value '2', the next line is considered to be read.
- the reading line by line is carried out by the use of a second counter n whose value indicates the number of the current line. Therefore, as indicated previously, the counter n takes integer values between 0 and N-1, with N an integer between 2 and the number of lines NI of the matrix 2, 2 'or 2 ".
- substep E 20 i or, where appropriate, substep E 204 is preceded by a substep E 207 of initialization of the value of counter n to the value n 0 , with n 0 an integer between 0 and N-2
- the integer n 0 indicates the number of the first line to be read, this first line generally corresponding to the first physical line of the matrix 2, 2 'or 2 ".
- a test is performed in substep E 208 to determine whether the value of the counter n is equal to the N-1 value. If this is not the case, the value of the counter n is incremented by one unit in a sub-step E 20 g and the process resumes in the substep E 201 or, if applicable, in the substep E 2 o 4 - If the value of the counter n is equal to the value N-1, the step E 2 line-by-line reading is terminated in a sub-step E 210 and the method resumes in the substep E 3 .
- the step E 2 comprises a substep E 211 of multiplexing, either analog signals from the substep E 202 , as shown in FIG. 5, or digital signals coming from the substep E 203 .
- the multiplexing is for example carried out by the multiplexer 6 represented in FIGS. 1 to 3.
- the step E 2 may also comprise an amplification sub-step E 212 .
- the amplification can particularly relate to the analog signals, the multiplexed signal and / or the digitized signal.
- FIG. 6 illustrates a particular embodiment of the step
- E 3 for determining the signals 0FX (n). According to this particular embodiment, it is sought to determine a "phase" of a disturbance signal that is sought to suppress the discrete signal X reel ⁇ n). This disturbance signal being obviously unknown, it is sought to determine a "phase" of the discrete signal X reel ⁇ n).
- the phase of a signal can only be defined with respect to a periodic reference function of known frequency.
- a discrete Fourier transform of the signals X red ⁇ n) is carried out in a sub-step E 31 in order to give, for each column of the matrix, a signal X red ⁇ k).
- the signals X red ⁇ k) are obtained according to the relation:
- a phase ⁇ k is determined for each non-zero frequency component of each signal X red ⁇ k) associated with a column of the matrix, according to the relation
- an OFX signal (k) is determined for each signal OF (k) from the frequency components of the signal OF (k) and the phases ⁇ k of the frequency components of the real signals X (k), according to the relation:
- the OFX signals (k) correspond to the discrete Fourier transforms of the OFX ⁇ n) signals.
- Each signal 0FX (n) can thus be determined in a substep E 35 by a inverse discrete Fourier transform of the OFX signal ⁇ k) of the column in question, in accordance with the relation:
- This frequency F N corresponds to the Nyquist frequency of the sampled signals X real ⁇ n) and OF ⁇ n).
- the presence of the second factor Vz is due to the fact that the samples of each signal are spaced apart by a duration 2T samplmg , and not by the duration T samplmg , because of the double reading on each line.
