    摘要: In the X-ray CT system, the X-ray detectors vary in output characteristics such as linearity, directivity and radiation quality from one detector to another. To make compensations for such irregularities, a plurality of phantoms of different absorption is prepared in the CT system according to the present invention. Namely, this plurality of phantoms is set one by one in the measuring space in the same manner as in the examination of an examinee or subject to be examined; the coefficient of X-ray absorption is determined for each of these phantoms. Further, theoretical values of absorption for each phantom are compared to the actual absorption measurements on each phantom to provide an absorption error value for each detector at differing absorption levels. The actual subject absorption value for each detector is used to pick the two error values closest to the actual value. The two error values are interpolated or extrapolated to find an error value for correcting the actual absorption value. The above method steps are advantageously implemented by one or more digital computers. The corrected subject absorption values are provided to a conventional image reconstruction device to provide the desired X-ray video image.

    摘要: In an image input device, in which an image is photographed by a television camera using a plurality of operational modes having numbers of scanning lines different from each other, a video signal thus obtained is subjected to an analogue to digital conversion and a digital image signal is stored, one of a plurality of sampling clocks obtained by dividing a main clock is selected; the analogue to digital conversion is effected by using the sampling clock thus selected; and at the same time synchronization signals of the horizontal and the vertical scannings of the television camera are formed by counting the selected sampling clock.
