摘要:
A method is proposed for producing an anti-scatter grid or collimator for a radiation type, which is formed from at least one base body of prescribable geometry having transmission channels or slits for primary radiation of the radiation type which extend between two opposite surfaces of the base body. The base body is formed from a structural material that strongly absorbs the radiation type, either using the injection molding technique or by way of the technique of stereolithography. The method can be used to produce an anti-scatter grid or collimator with high accuracy and with the aid of only a few steps.

An X-ray detector is for a CT device and includes a phosphor layer for generating electromagnetic radiation as a function of the occurrence of X-radiation, and a photodetector layer for detecting the electromagnetic radiation generated by the phosphor layer. The phosphor layer includes ceramic material and the photodetector layer includes organic material. A process is further for producing an X-ray detector, including the steps of producing a phosphor layer from a ceramic material and applying a photodetector layer made from an organic material to the phosphor layer via a spinning, printing or beam/jet process or by sticking it on as a film. It is optionally possible to provide a further process step for polishing the surface of the phosphor layer before applying the photodetector layer.

An image detector for an x-ray device includes photosensors which have at least two contacts on which an electrical signal occurs when x-rays are detected. In each case, at least one contact of the photosensors is arranged on its rear side, facing away from the image source. Further, the material used for the photosensors is an organic photodiode material.

An image detector is for detecting electromagnetic radiation, in particular X-ray radiation. It includes a carrier layer and a photosensor carried by the carrier layer. Each of the carrier layer and photosensor both have a nonvanishing transparency to the electromagnetic radiation. The image detector includes two or more carrier layers and photosensors carried thereby, arranged one above the other, so that the electromagnetic radiation can pass through them one after the other.

In a method and a magnetic resonance (MR) system for functional MR imaging of a predetermined volume segment of THE brain of a living examination subject, an RF excitation pulse is radiated into the subject and at least one magnetic field gradient is activated, and MR data of the predetermined volume segment is acquired beginning at a predetermined echo time after the RF excitation pulse. The echo time is in a time period of 10 μs to 1000 μs.

In a method and a magnetic resonance (MR) system for functional MR imaging of a predetermined volume segment of the brain of a living examination subject, MR data of the predetermined volume segment are acquired, EEG data of the examination subject are acquired with the acquisition of the EEG data taking place simultaneously with the acquisition of the MR data, and the MR data automatically evaluated dependent on the acquired EEG data.

In an evaluation method and device for evaluation of medical image data, a pre-selection step is implemented for a manual pre-selection of the medical image data and a selection step is implemented for manual selection of relevant image regions in the pre-selected medical image data. Information for the selection of relevant image regions is provided in a manner that is at least partially computer-controlled in the preparation step.

A method is for operation of a counting radiation detector, in particular of a counting X-ray detector, with improved linearity, in which each detector element of the counting radiation detector supplies counting pulses at counting rates as a function of a number of radiation quanta which occur per unit time during operation. In the method, the counting rates which are supplied from each detector element or from subsections of the detector element are converted via a functional relationship to actual counting rates or are multiplied by correction factors which are dependent on the magnitude of the counting rates. The correction factors are determined in advance for the respective detector element or for the subsections of it, and any discrepancy (which occurs as a result of a dead time of the detector element, for example) in the counting rates is corrected from the actual number of radiation quanta which arrive per unit time. The method allows the linearity of counting radiation detectors to be improved, particularly at high radiation intensities, so that the linearity condition for X-ray CT systems is also satisfied.

A detector module is for CT and/or PET and/or SPECT examinations, and includes a number of measuring channels. Each measuring channel includes a direct converter for directly converting incident measuring radiation into analog electric signals, a pulse generator connected to the direct converter, for generating counting pulses as a function of the received electric signals, and a counting device that counts the received counting pulses over a prescribable time period and outputs the result. Arranged between the counting device and the pulse generator is an externally drivable changeover unit that can be used to switch over between the counting device and an event detector that registers and outputs for each received counting pulse the time and the associated measuring channel or an item of location information assigned to this measuring channel. The present detector module is of simple design.
