- the printed circuit board 40 is provided inside the housing 10 to control or process an image signal for a subject by supplying power to the radiation detecting panel 20.
- Electronic components mounted on the printed circuit board 40 may generate noise by electromagnetic waves (EMI), and wirings on the printed circuit board 40 may also cause conduction and radiation of noise. If the radiation detection panel 20 is affected by the noise, the radiation detection panel 20 may generate noise in the radiographic image.
- EMI electromagnetic waves
- countermeasures against such noise include reinforcing the ground to stabilize the ground, shielding the noise generating source, and filtering the noise.
- the method of stabilizing the ground by reinforcing the ground is to secure the ground as wide as possible and to form a uniform. This is because when the ground point is multiple, the ground circuit forms a loop and the ground loop current flows, causing a change in the reference potential.
- Grounding should be uniformly reference potential (for example, 0V). If there are several grounding points, and ground loops with different distances are formed, grounding points may actually differ from the reference potential due to the impedance of the wiring. do. At this time, since a current flows in the ground circuit, a voltage drop due to an impedance may occur, thereby changing the reference potential.

- the intermediate plate 200 may be formed in a plate shape having conductivity, and may be electrically connected to the ground wire of the printed circuit board 40.
- Ground loop noise is noise caused by grounding the device on ground with different potentials. That is, ground loop noise is noise generated when the potential difference between grounds is different from each other when the ground loop distance is far apart. As described above, the ground should be uniformly at the reference potential (for example, 0 V). If there are several ground points and a ground loop having a different distance is formed, the ground point is actually the reference potential under the influence of the impedance of the wiring. Different cases occur. At this time, since a current flows to the ground circuit, a voltage drop due to impedance occurs, and the reference potential changes, thereby generating ground loop noise. Therefore, in order to minimize ground loop noise in terms of image quality, the ground potential of the intermediate plate 200 should be uniform to the ground potential and the reference potential of the printed circuit board 40.

That is, the intermediate plate 200 is an automatic exposure control sensor when the radiation detection apparatus 1 is used as a cassette of a computerized radiation (CR) wear imaging apparatus as described below with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. It must be a material with high radiation transmittance in order to sufficiently transmit the radiation to (AEC).
- the automatic exposure control sensor 1300 may generate a control signal for controlling the irradiation amount of the radiation by sensing the radiation transmitted from the radiation generator 1100 and transmitted through the subject and the radiation detection apparatus 1.
- the automatic exposure control sensor 1300 is located at the rear of the radiation detection apparatus 1, sensing of radiation by electronic components such as a read integrated circuit may be prevented, so that the electronic exposure control sensor 1300 may be blocked.

- the radiation generating unit for generating radiation used in the medical radiography apparatus generates a radiation by applying a high acceleration voltage (tube voltage) to the radiation tube to accelerate electrons and collide with a target provided inside the radiation tube.
- a tube voltage of 70 to 100 kVp is applied, but a mammography radiography apparatus irradiates soft tissues of the breast, which is much less dense than bones, so that there is a difference in density from surrounding tissues.
- a tube voltage of 20 to 35 kVp with low transmission is used to detect very small fine cancer cells.
- breast tissue is usually distributed according to age, but since the structure of each tissue is different and the distribution is also different, it is not easy to apply the photographing conditions depending only on the thickness of the press during mammography. It is possible to use previously recorded data, but because the patient's breast condition may vary due to hormone status or age, and the shooting conditions may be different, the automatic exposure control device (AEC sensor) for automatically controlling the radiation dose is worn. It is indispensable to the radiographic apparatus for photography. In addition, if the AEC sensor is provided above (or in front of) the radiation detection device, the radiation is disturbed by the AEC sensor before it reaches the radiation detection device, and the wearable radiography apparatus has a tube voltage of 20 to 35 kVp with low transmittance. Since the AEC sensor must be inserted under (or behind) the radiation detection device.
- AEC sensor automatic exposure control device
- Table 1 shows the absolute radiation transmittance and the effective radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate 200 measured while varying the thickness of the first metal layer 220 of the intermediate plate 200 according to the present invention.
- a tube voltage of 28 kVp was applied and electrons were injected into the molybdenum target equipped with a molybdenum 0.03 mm filter inside the radiation tube.
- the absolute radiation transmittance is a ratio of the radiation dose transmitted through the intermediate plate to the radiation dose incident on the intermediate plate 200 after the radiation generated in the radiation generating unit passes through free space (ie, air or vacuum).
- free space ie, air or vacuum.
- Aluminum (Al) can be used as a first metal layer because it is easy to process into a foil shape that is easily formed or attached to a thin film, and is easy to obtain, and has high permeability and electrical conductivity. It is not.
- the effective radiation transmittance is based on the amount of radiation incident on the intermediate plate after passing through the standard phantom and the radiation detection panel, the average photon average energy of the intermediate plate incident radiation is measured when the effective radiation transmittance is measured. This is because it is higher than the intermediate plate incident radiation in the city (ie, passing through the standard phantom and the radiation detection panel, the low energy band of radiation photons is already absorbed and not involved in the radiation transmission of the intermediate plate).
- the absolute transmittance is 29.1214% for the 750 ⁇ m thick aluminum first metal layer, but shows a high effective radiation transmittance of about 60% in the actual radiation detection environment. Therefore, in order to define the characteristics of the intermediate plate rather than the effective radiation transmittance which is greatly influenced by the environment before entering the intermediate plate, it is desirable to specify based on the absolute radiation transmittance.
- the radiation detection apparatus In order to apply the radiation detection apparatus according to the present invention instead of a cassette type film to a mammography radiographic apparatus, radiation is stably detected by an automatic exposure control sensor (AEC sensor) provided at the rear of the radiation detection apparatus. It is necessary to determine the lower limit of the radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate capable of controlling the radiation dose. At this time, the radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate should be determined for the radiation emitted by the tube voltage of 20 to 35 kVp because the X-ray generator of the wear imaging radiograph uses a tube voltage of 20 to 35 kVp.
- AEC sensor automatic exposure control sensor
- the radiation transmittance is almost 100%, so that the radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate is determined by the first metal layer. Therefore, as shown in Table 2, the tube charge value (mAs) value, the irradiation dose value, and the average streamline dose value were measured while changing the thickness of the first metal layer 220 of the intermediate plate 200.
- the tube voltage applied to the radiation generating unit was 28kVp, and PMMA (Polymethyl methacrylate) 40mm standard phantom and automatic exposure control sensor (AEC) were simulated on the upper and lower portions of the radiation detector.
- the aluminum layer is selected as the first metal layer, the material is not particularly limited.
- the tube charge amount (mAs) is the total amount of electrons that collide with the metal target to generate radiation, and the tube current amount (mA) generated when accelerating electrons to emit radiation is multiplied by the emission time (s). Therefore, the mAs value is linearly proportional to the irradiation dose.
- a mammography radiography apparatus generates radiation while applying a constant tube voltage to irradiate the human body and the radiation detection device to be inspected, and the radiation transmitted through the human body and the radiation detection device to the automatic exposure control sensor (AEC). If the radiation dose set by the sensing is configured to stop the irradiation.
- the radiation dose level read by the AEC sensor in order to control the radiation dose to a certain level is set to the minimum, so that the irradiation dose controlled by the AEC is set to the minimum.
- the mAs value was measured for each thickness of the first metal layer from the start of the irradiation with the tube voltage (for example, 28 kVp) fixed until the irradiation was stopped by the automatic exposure control sensor (AEC sensor).
- the irradiation dose represents the dose of radiation emitted by the radiation tube in response to the measured mAs value
- the average wire dose is the dose of radiation absorbed into the breast among the irradiation doses.
- an automatic exposure control sensor (AEC sensor) is provided behind the radiation detection device to detect radiation reaching the AEC sensor through the radiation detection device to adjust the radiation exposure amount according to a preset value. Therefore, as the thickness of the first metal layer increases, the radiation dose reaching the AEC sensor decreases, thereby controlling the radiation tube to irradiate more radiation dose (when the sensitivity and the set value of the AEC sensor are the same).
- Increasing the radiation dose to be irradiated can generally be carried out by keeping the tube current (mA) applied to the radiation tube constant and increasing the irradiation time (s) (ie, increasing the mAs value). .
- the dose measured in Table 1 is set so that the lowest radiation dose is irradiated by lowering the setting value of the dose which causes the AEC sensor to terminate irradiation.
- the absolute radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate (or the first metal layer) is too low, the amount of radiation that reaches the AEC sensor becomes too small, so that the AEC sensor cannot sense the preset radiation dose to generate a command to stop irradiation. do.
- the irradiation time (s) must be increased to reach the preset radiation dose in the radiation dose sensed by the AEC sensor.
- the radiation dose control by the AEC sensor may become impossible due to Alternatively, if the amount of radiation reaching the AEC sensor becomes smaller, the AEC sensor may not even detect the radiation because it does not reach the minimum amount of radiation that the AEC sensor can sense.
- the absolute radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate (or the first metal layer) is too low, the amount of radiation that passes through the radiation detection device and reaches the automatic exposure control sensor (AEC sensor) is reduced to an uncontrollable level through the calibration of the AEC sensor. In extreme cases, the AEC sensor is unable to detect radiation. Therefore, in order to fully control the radiation dose even when shooting a denser and thicker breast than the breast simulated by a 40mm thick PMMA standard phantom, it is necessary to obtain an absolute radiation transmittance above an appropriate level. Through the simulation experiment, the radiation dose passing through the panel except the middle plate, the PMMA standard phantom of 40mm thickness, and the intermediate plate for each transmittance was 2.7 ⁇ Gy (set radiation dose).

- the recommended average line dose in Europe is 2.0 mGy
- sufficient dose must reach the AEC sensor so that the AEC sensor can adjust the radiation generator to investigate the appropriate dose.
- the AEC sensor cannot be calibrated if the absolute transmittance of the intermediate plate is below a certain level, so it must be above a certain transmittance (70% or more of the absolute transmittance in Europe).
- the absolute radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate to radiation generated by a tube voltage of 20 to 35 kVp is sufficient if 30% or more, In the general radiography apparatus, since a tube voltage higher than 35 kVp is applied to easily transmit radiation having high energy, the absolute radiation transmittance of the intermediate plate may be lower than 30%.
