    摘要： The present disclosure relates to determining the position of an X-ray focal spot in real time during an imaging process and using the focal spot position to ensure alignment of the focal spot and high-aspect detector elements or to correct for focal spot misalignment, thereby mitigating image artifacts. For example, the focal spot position may be monitored and may be adjusted in real-time using electromagnetic electron beam steering during a scan. Alternatively, previously determined functional relationships between focal spot position and measured data may be applied to address or correct for focal spot misalignment in the acquired data.

    摘要： A filtering device includes an X-ray translucent substrate having a plurality of septa disposed therein at a plurality of fixed positions with respect to the substrate. A controller is programmed to acquire a first set of projection data at a first energy spectrum by controlling the X-ray source to emit the X-rays at the first energy spectrum and controlling the position of the filtering device to focally align the plurality of septa with the X-ray beam emitted from the focal spot, and to acquire a second set of projection data at a second energy spectrum with a mean energy greater than the mean energy of the first energy spectrum by controlling the X-ray source to emit the X-rays at the second energy spectrum and controlling a change in the position of the filtering device to focally misalign the plurality of septa with the X-ray beam emitted from the focal spot.

    摘要： A system includes an energy-discriminating, photon-counting X-ray detector, comprising a plurality of detector cells providing measurements corresponding to at least two energy bins and being adapted to produce projection data in response to X-ray photons that reach the X-ray detector and to produce an electrical signal having a recorded count for the energy bins and a total energy intensity.

    摘要： An energy-sensitive system includes one or more processors configured to determine spectral attenuation curves for a first basis material and a second basis material, respectively. The one or more processors are configured to substitute a k-edge feature in the determined spectral attenuation curves with an approximation of the determined spectral attenuation curves lacking the k-edge feature. The one or more processors are also configured to construct a material decomposition model based on one of the determined or approximated first and second spectral attenuation curves. The one or more processors are additionally configured to decompose X-ray projection data into basis material projection data comprising first and second line integrals based, at least in part, on the model.

    摘要： The present disclosure relates to fabrication and use of a phase-contrast imaging detector that includes sub-pixel resolution electrodes or photodiodes spaced to correspond to a phase-contrast interference pattern. A system using such a detector may employ fewer gratings than are typically used in a phase-contrast imaging system, with certain functionality typically provided by a detector-side analyzer grating being performed by sub-pixel resolution structures (e.g., electrodes or photodiodes) of the detector. Measurements acquired using the detector may be used to determine offset, amplitude, and phase of a phase-contrast interference pattern without multiple acquisitions at different phase steps.
