摘要:
An image processing device of a radiation image acquisition device (100) uses a weighted filter to perform a smoothing (processing S102) on an image obtained by counting the number of incident gamma rays. The image processing device suppresses pixel values of a threshold value or less on the smoothed image (processing S103). Further, the image processing device again applies a weighted and smoothing filter to the image processed by a threshold-value processing, to expand the pixels of the accumulation portion (processing S104); thus providing an image that facilitates finding the accumulation portion of a radioisotope.

A radiation imaging apparatus comprises display means for displaying an image obtained by imaging an object and light projection means for projecting a light projection mark onto the object, and displays a light projection position on the object onto which the light projection mark is projected on the image. The light projection mark is projected as a line of intersection which is perpendicular to the surface of a detector and at which two planar flat light beams visually intersect each other, and the light projection position on the image is moved according to the movements of the flat light beams. By calculating projected lines obtained by projecting the light projection lines projected onto the object by the flat light beams onto the surface and displaying the projected lines on the image, the light projection position is displayed as a point of intersection of the projected lines on the image.

The purpose of the present invention is to improve energy resolving power and prevent energy resolving power from deteriorating when a thick semiconductor detection element with a wide energy range is used, in a radiation measuring device using a semiconductor detector and a nuclear medicine diagnostic device. With the present invention, the purpose is achieved by pulsed wave value correction employing the difference of (Hs−Hf) between the pulsed wave height value Hs obtained from the slow speed shaping circuit, and the pulsed wave height value Hf obtained from the fast speed shaping circuit and normalized with respect to Hs. An even more desirable result may be obtained by employing either (Hs−Hf)/Hf or exp(k(Hs−Hf)/Hf), wherein k is a coefficient to be optimized, said optimization being dependent on the measurement assembly.

A radiological imaging apparatus allowing semiconductor radiation detectors to be easily replaced with new ones and densely arranged. Terminals (31cjk) and (33cjk) are provided on a bottom surface of a detector aggregate (40mn) including a plurality of semiconductor radiation detectors (1); the terminals is connected to electrodes (3 and 4) of the detectors (1). A plurality of zero insertion force connectors (56) are provided on a connecting device (33jk) installed on a support substrate (32h). The terminals (31cjk and 33cjk) are detachably attached to the zero insertion force connectors (56) to mount the detector aggregates (40mn) that are the semiconductor radiation detectors (1), on the support substrate (32h). When the detector aggregates (40mn) are attached to the zero insertion force connectors (56), since no frictional force acts on the terminals, the size of the gap between the detector aggregates (40mn) is reduced.

A γ-ray signal processing section 60′ determines a detection time of a γ ray based on a α-ray detection signal outputted from a semiconductor radiation detector for detecting the γ ray, and determines the energy of the γ ray. Then, a time correction circuit 70 obtains, based on the energy of the γ ray, a detection value of the detection time that corresponds to the energy of the γ ray from a time correction table indicating the relationship between the energy of the γ ray and the correction value of the detection time of the γ ray, and corrects the detection time according to the obtained correction value of the detection time. Coincidence counting is performed on the γ ray in a coincidence counting circuit 80 based on the corrected detection time.
