摘要:
A moiré fringe difference detector detects a change in moiré fringes occurring in first and second differential phase images between actual radiography and preliminary radiography, and calculates a characteristic amount corresponding to the change. This characteristic amount is a period of an artifact occurring in a corrected differential phase image, which is obtained by subtracting the second differential phase image captured in the preliminary radiography from the first differential phase image captured in the actual radiography. A system controller compares this period with a view size of an X-ray image detector. When the period is smaller than the view size, a message to suggest re-execution of the preliminary radiography is displayed on a monitor. When the preliminary radiography is re-executed, a new second differential phase image obtained by the re-execution of the preliminary radiography is subtracted from the first differential phase image, to produce a new corrected differential phase image.

A radiographic apparatus includes a first grating unit, a grating pattern unit, a radiological image detector. The first grating unit has a plurality of radiation shield units that shields the radiation emitted from the radiation source and a substrate on which the first radiation shield units are arranged and which enables the radiation emitted from the radiation source to penetrate therethrough. The grating pattern unit has a period that substantially coincides with a pattern period of a radiological image. The radiological image detector detects the radiological image masked by the grating pattern unit and has a plurality of pixels converting and accumulating the radiation into charges and a substrate. A thermal expansion coefficient of the substrate of the first grating unit is the substantially same as a thermal expansion coefficient of the substrate of the radiological image detector.

A radiographic system which detects a radiation image transmitted through a subject with a radiation image detector and generates a phase contrast image of the subject, includes: a calculation section that calculates a distribution of refraction angles of radiation incident on the radiation image detector and generates the phase contrast image on the basis of the distribution of refraction angles; and a storage section that stores a correction coefficient of each pixel for making sensitivities of pixels equal. The calculation section performs sensitivity correction on a refraction angle of radiation incident on each pixel of the radiation image detector, which is calculated by imaging the subject, using the correction coefficient of the pixel stored in the storage section and generates the phase contrast image of the subject on the basis of the distribution of corrected refraction angles.

A radiographic system includes an X-ray source, a first transmission type grating, a second transmission type grating, a scanning mechanism, and a flat panel detector, and an arithmetic processing section. The first transmission type grating is constituted by connecting a plurality of first grating pieces in a first direction, and the second transmission type grating is constituted by connecting a plurality of second grating pieces in the first direction. In projection onto the flat panel detector with the focus of the X-ray source as a viewpoint, at least one pixel is interposed between each pixel of the flat panel detector onto which a connection point of two adjacent first grating pieces is projected and each pixel onto which a connection portion of two adjacent second grating pieces is projected.

A front end rigid portion constitutes a front end of an endoscope insertion unit in an endoscope. The front end rigid portion is provided with an illumination optical system irradiating an observation target area with illumination light and an imaging optical system having an imaging element imaging the observation target area. The endoscope includes a heat emission member which is connected to the front end rigid portion and extends in the longitudinal direction of the endoscope insertion unit. The heat emission member is formed by mixing fiber-piece-shaped fillers with a resin material.

An X-ray imaging system includes an X-ray source, first and second absorption gratings, and an FPD. The first absorption grating passes X-ray emitted from the X-ray source to form a G1 image. The second absorption grating modulates intensity of the G1 image at each of relative positions to form two or more fringe images. The relative positions differ in phase with respect to a period pattern of the G1 image. The FPD detects two or more frames of image data of the fringe images. A defective pixel detector reads two or more frames of image data stored in a memory and obtains a characteristic value of an intensity modulated signal on a pixel-by-pixel basis based on the read image data. The defective pixel detector detects a defective pixel based on the characteristic value obtained.

An X-ray imaging system is provided with an X-ray source (11), first and second absorption gratings (31, 32), and a flat panel detector (FPD) (30), and obtains a phase contrast image of an object H by performing imaging while moving the second absorption grating (32) in x direction relative to the first absorption grating (31). The following mathematical expression is satisfied where p1′ denotes a period of a first pattern image at a position of the second absorption grating (32), and p2′ denotes a substantial grating pitch of the second absorption grating (32), and DX denotes a dimension, in the x-direction, of an X-ray imaging area of each pixel of the FPD (30). Here, “n” denotes a positive integer. DX≠n×(p1′×p2′)/|p1′−p2′|

A radiological image detection apparatus includes a first grating unit, a grating pattern unit, a radiological image detector, and an anti-scatter grating. The grating pattern unit has a period that substantially coincides with a pattern period of a radiological image formed by radiation having passed through the first grating unit. The radiological image detector detects the radiological image masked by the grating pattern unit. The anti-scatter grating is arranged on a path of the radiation incident onto the radiological image detector and removes scattered radiation. A smoothing process is performed for at least one of a surface and a backside of the anti-scatter grating intersecting with a traveling direction of the radiation.

Defects observed by imaging tools may be classified by automatic comparison of features observed in a defect image with design information relating to corresponding portions of the image. Defect information may be generated from a defect image from a defect imaging tool. Design information relating to one or more structures to be formed on the substrate in a vicinity of the defect may be retrieved. The defect may be classified based on a combination of the defect information from the defect image and design information relating to one or more structures to be formed on the substrate in the vicinity of the defect.
