    摘要: Method and device for digital x-ray tomosynthesis. Tomographic and/or three-dimensional images of an object are obtained with an x-ray source and a digital x-ray image sensor. The source, object and sensor are positioned relative to each other and attenuation data is obtained for a large number of rays of x-radiation through the object. A special algorithm is provided to convert the data into images. To calculate the images the algorithm uses iterative processes with a least squares type technique but with generalized (as opposed to specific) functions. The algorithm solves for the functions which are the images. Preferred embodiments include a system having an x-ray point source with a cone of diverging x-rays, a two-dimensional digital x-ray image sensor, two linear translation stages to independently move both the x-ray source and the digital x-ray image sensor, two rotation mechanisms to rotate the two linear translation stages, a microprocessor to control the data acquisition, and a computer programmed with a special algorithm to calculate the tomographic images. A plurality of sets of digital data (representing x-ray algorithm images of an object) are acquired by the digital x-ray image sensor, with the x-ray source and the digital x-ray image sensor located at different positions and angles relative to the object. The digital data representing the x-ray attenuation images is stored in the computer. Special mathematical algorithms then compute multiple images of the object using the acquired digital data. These images could include multiple tomographic images, a three-dimensional image, or a multiple three-dimensional images.

    摘要: A method and apparatus are disclosed for screening articles such as baggage (4), utilizing a computerized touch sensitive screen (10A) or other computerized pointing device for operator identification and electronic marking of objects within the article to be further examined. Baggage is electromagnetically (i.e., x-ray) scanned (1) while traveling on a conveyer (3) and an electronic image (11) is taken of each article and stored in a computer (8). An operator positioned at a computerized touch sensitive screen views electronic images of the articles to be screened as they are conveyed past a sensor array which transmits sequences of images. The present system utilizes a plurality of visual display devices (10A-10C), each with an examiner, which are likely located remotely of the screening operation. Each examination continues such that there is no interruption in the flow of articles should an examiner detect an object worthy of further examination, either by screen or by physical examination.
