    摘要: A dual pulse imaging method is provided comprising the steps of generating a first image of a region of interest by a first pulse delivering a first dose, generating a second image of the region of interest by a second pulse delivering a second dose different from the first dose, and computing a third image of the region of interest using data from the first and second images. A threshold can be identified for determining data from the first and second images to be used in computing the third image. A dual pulse imaging system is also provided.

    摘要: Devices and methods for implementing selective, or asymmetric, attenuation of an x-ray beam. In one example, a filter is provided that is substantially in the form of a wedge where some portions of the filter are thicker, and thus provide greater attenuation, than other, thinner portions of the filter. The filter is situated between the target surface of the anode and the x-ray subject so that x-rays generated by the target pass through the filter before reaching the x-ray subject. Specifically, the filter is oriented so that the thicker portion of the filter receives the higher intensity portion of the x-ray beam, while the thinner portion of the filter receives the relatively lower intensity portion of the x-ray beam. Thus, the gain profile of the x-ray beam is flattened so that the intensity, or flux, of the x-ray beam is relatively uniform throughout a substantial portion of the beam profile.
