摘要:
A multi-mode cone beam computed tomography radiotherapy simulator and treatment machine is disclosed. The radiotherapy simulator and treatment machine both include a rotatable gantry on which is positioned a cone-beam radiation source and a flat panel imager. The flat panel imager captures x-ray image data to generate cone-beam CT volumetric images used to generate a therapy patient position setup and a treatment plan.

摘要:
A multiple mode digital X-ray imaging system providing for preprocessing “binning” of analog pixel signals from a detector array by selectively summing, within the detector array, adjacent pixel charges on a row-by-row basis and selectively summing, within detector array readout circuits, the previously summed pixel charges (by rows) on a column-by-column basis. An array, or mapping, of “defective pixel” flags is used to identify defective pixels within the detector array, with such flags being added to, or inserted into, the incoming data stream for dynamic processing along with the incoming pixel data. A buffer and filter is used to perform still image capture during the radiographic mode of operation and to recursively filter incoming data frames during the fluoroscopic mode of operation by summing a scaled amount of pixel data from prior data frames with a scaled amount of incoming pixel data from the present data frame.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for excess signal compensation in an imaging system is described. In one particular embodiment, the invention provides for non-linear background, offset (due to time dependent dark current) and/or lag (including constant, linear and non-linear terms, due to image persistence) corrections of large area, flat panel imaging sensors.
摘要:
A current mode analog signal multiplexor includes multiple input multiplexed differential amplifiers, and an output differential current amplifier. An input multiplex control signal selects and enables one of the input multiplexed differential amplifiers for buffering and steering the input signal current to one side of the output differential current amplifier. The reference amplifier drives the other side of the output differential current amplifier. The output node of the output differential current amplifier remains at a substantially constant voltage potential while providing an output current which varies in relation to the selected input signal.
