    摘要: The invention relates to a method and a device for determining the distribution of an X-ray fluorescence (XRF) marker (16) in a body volume (14). The body volume (14) is irradiated with a beam of rays (12) from an X-ray source (10) with a first ray component with a quantum energy just above and a second ray component with a quantum energy just below the K-edge of the XRF marker (16). Secondary radiation emitted from the body volume (14) is detected in a location-resolved way by a detector (30). To separate the X-ray fluorescence components in the secondary radiation from background radiation, the body volume is irradiated for a second time with a beam of rays from which the first ray component has been substantially removed by a filter (22) made from the material of the XRF marker.

    摘要: The invention describes a method of generating metabolic images of an investigation region (3) of a body (1) by irradiating an X-ray fluorescence marker in that region and detecting the resulting X-ray fluorescence with a fluorescence detector (30). A fan beam (12) is used as a source of primary X-radiation, thus allowing the scanning of a whole body slice (3) in one step. The fluorescence image may be directly measured, e.g. by mapping voxels (104) of the investigation region onto pixels (134) of the detector (130) with the help of a pinhole collimator (132), or it may be reconstructed by procedures of computed tomography. Moreover, a morphological image may be generated by simultaneously recording X-ray transmission through the body (1).

    摘要: An X-ray apparatus comprises a polychromatic X-ray source for generating a primary beam of small cross-section, an energy-sensitive detector arrangement for detecting the scattered radiation produced by elastic scattering processes in the primary beam, which detector arrangement comprises a plurality of detector elements which are arranged on rings concentric with the primary beam, and a collimator arrangement which is arranged between the X-ray source and the detector arrangement and which encloses the primary beam. In order to enable accurate determination of the pulse transfer spectrum while using a low dose, the collimator arrangement is constructed so that the scattered radiation from the same section of the primary beam is incident on a plurality of detector elements.

    摘要: A method of stress-optical force measurement where a linearly polarized light ray is guided into a stress-optical measurement array consisting of several measurement members on which the force to be measured acts in a distributed manner. The light ray successively traverses the measurement members while being influenced in a force-dependent manner and is applied to a subsequent evaluation unit for evaluation. The invention also relates to a measurement device for performing the method, comprising a measurement array and an evaluation unit between two plates which are arranged in parallel at a distance from one another. The measurement array consists of at least three spaced stress-optical measurement members which keep the plates at a distance from one another, influence the light ray in a force-dependent manner, and guide the light ray into the evaluation unit arranged between two measurement members.

    摘要: A method of transmitting at least two measured values by means of light pulses which are passed by an optical transmitter through an optical transmission path to an optical receiver and whose relative separation in time is proportional to the measured value. The energy consumption for the optical transmission of the measured values is reduced by transmitting needle pulses cyclically, one after another in the same order of succession, in that per measured value an optical measuring pulse is transmitted, whose separation in time from the optical measuring pulse associated with a preceding measured value is proportional the magnitude of the measured value, and in that for each group of measured values an optical identification pulse is transmitted, whose distance in time from a preceding measuring pulse is smaller than the smallest possible distance in time between two successive optical measuring pulses.
