摘要： A method and CT system are disclosed for preparing reconstructed CT image data records. In at least one embodiment of the method, an initial material distribution of an examination object is determined from CT data records determined from among at least two different spectral weightings with local energy-determined attenuation values, and local measurement-spectrum-dependent weighting functions are determined using this material distribution, enabling local measurement-spectrum-dependent attenuation functions to be calculated, and the distribution of local reference materials to be determined, with the help of plausibility considerations, from a list of reference materials over at least one specified region of interest in the examination object on the basis of previously calculated local measurement-spectrum-dependent attenuation functions.

摘要： In a control device for a computed tomography apparatus and method for controlling a computer tomography apparatus, the control device acquires a number of temporally successive volume data sets of the same subject in order to detect a temporal variation of the measurement subject. During the acquisition of a further volume data set of the same measurement subject, using the x-ray radiation currently received by the receiver unit, the control device automatically establishes a correlation in real time between a stored, earlier volume data set of the same measurement subject and the volume data set to be directly acquired, and the control device controls the x-ray source such that the x-ray radiation used for the acquisition of the volume data set to be directly acquired exhibits an intensity and/or dose that is inversely dependent on the established correlation.

摘要： A focus/detector system of an X-ray apparatus is disclosed for generating projective or tomographic phase contrast recordings. In at least one embodiment, the system includes a beam source, including a focus and a focus-side source grating, arranged in the beam path to generate a field of ray-wise coherent X-rays; and a grating/detector arrangement having a phase grating with grating lines arranged parallel to the source grating for generating an interference pattern and a detector having a multiplicity of detector elements arranged flat for measuring the radiation intensity behind the phase grating. Further, the detector elements are formed by a multiplicity of elongate detection strips, which are aligned parallel to the grating lines of the phase grating. Furthermore, at least one embodiment also relates to the use of this focus/detector system in an X-ray system for generating projective recordings or in C-arc equipment or a CT system, and/or to a method for generating projective and tomographic X-ray recordings of a subject.

摘要： An antiscatter grid is disclosed which is constructed from lamellas that are opaque to radiation. Further, a method is disclosed for producing such an antiscatter grid. The antiscatter grid includes a cell-like structure with radiation channels respectively surrounded laterally by the lamellas, the lamellas being arranged crossing over at least partially in such a way that at at least a few crossover sites at least one lamella respectively has a slot that is cut out laterally in a fashion substantially in the direction of radiation, in which another lamella is positively arranged. Owing to this shape and this arrangement for the lamellas, they support one another mutually such that they also form a dimensionally stable structure without additional means for holding them.

摘要： The invention relates to a method for the image-producing examination of an object to be examined, especially a patient (P). According to said method, a contrast agent (KM) is first administered to the object to be examined. At least two spatial distributions of x-ray attenuation values are determined, said values respectively representing the local x-ray attenuation coefficients (μ(x,y)) or a quantity (C) which is linearly dependent on the same. The two spatial distributions comprise at least one first attenuation value distribution (μ1(x,y)), the determination thereof being based on a first x-ray spectrum, and one second attenuation value distribution (μ2(x,y)), the determination thereof being based on a second x-ray spectrum which is different to the first x-ray spectrum. By evaluating the two attenuation value distributions, a spatial distribution of at least one predefined atomic number value (Z; Z1, Z2, . . . ) or a spatial distribution (Z(x,y)) of a non-predefined atomic number value in the object to be examined is determined, said spatial distribution containing information about the distribution of the administered contrast agent (KM) in the object to be examined. The spatial atomic number distribution is used to represent the contrast agent (KM) in the image.
