    摘要: A method for sensing a level of ionizing radiation directed from a radiation source through a subject and toward a digital radiography detector, executed at least in part by a logic processor, obtains image data that relates the position of the subject to the digital radiography detector and assigns one or more radiant-energy sensing elements of the digital radiography detector as one or more exposure control sensing elements. The one or more exposure control sensing elements are sampled one or more times during exposure to measure the exposure directed to the subject. A signal is provided to terminate exposure according to exposure measurements obtained from the one or more exposure control sensing elements within the digital radiography detector.

    摘要: An apparatus for recording a 2D image of an object comprises a plurality of 1D detector units (41), each exposed to ionizing radiation, as transmitted through or scattered off the object, and being arranged for 1D imaging of the radiation, to which it is exposed. The detector units are distributed in a dense array such that the 1D images of the radiation from the detector units are distributed over a substantial portion of the 2D image. The apparatus includes a device (87-89, 91) for moving the detector units relative the object while the detector units repeatedly detect to create the 2D image of the object; and a control device for (i) controlling the detector units to detect ionizing radiation during a short period of time before or during an initial part of the movement, (ii) calculating an optimum exposure time for the repeated detection based on the short period of time detection, and (iii) controlling the repeated detection to automatically obtain the optimum exposure time.

    摘要: An X-ray examination apparatus comprises an exposure control circuit (20) which supplies a control signal for adjustment of the X-ray source (1). The exposure control circuit (20) determines the control signal from an area of the X-ray image in which no overexposure occurs. To this end, the exposure control circuit comprises a selection unit (23) for determining a measuring part from an electronic image signal, formed from the X-ray image by means of an X-ray detector (5, 8, 7), by comparing the signal level of the electronic image signal with an upper limit value which is dependent on the setting of the X-ray apparatus, for example of the high voltage and the anode current of the X-ray source. The upper limit value preferably amounts to the difference between the overexposure level and a safety margin. The safety margin serves to render the exposure control circuit insensitive to small fluctuations of the intensity and energy of the X-ray beam (3) generated by the X-ray source (1).

    摘要: A digital automatic X-ray exposure control system includes a digital frequency modulated output signal circuit generating a digital frequency modulated output signal (42) having a pulse rate that is frequency modulated in proportion to the level of an X-ray beam received at an ion chamber of an X-ray imaging apparatus. A digital input circuit (22) connected to the output circuit via a digital communication interface cable receives the digital output signal and generates an exposure termination signal (80) for use by the X-ray imaging apparatus to interrupt the generation of the X-ray beam at a precise exposure level. The digital input circuit includes a digital counter circuit (70) for counting pulses in the output signal as a pulse count value that is compared against an exposure length parameter value (74) for generating a count match signal (76) based on a correspondence therebetween. A processor circuit (72) receives the count match signal and generates the exposure termination signal for extinguishing the X-ray beam. An X-ray film sensitivity circuit (64) and a digital short-time exposure compensation circuit (62) is included in the subject digital automatic exposure control system. The X-ray film sensitivity circuit includes a programmable clock divider circuit (96) for scaling the digital output signal in accordance with the screen sensitivity of the X-ray film. The digital short-time compensation circuit (62) includes a programmable frequency multiplier circuit (86) for multiplying the digital output signal by a clock multiplier scaling factor parameter during a brief programmable timing period.
