摘要:
An X-ray apparatus including an X-ray source, a rotation mechanism which rotates the X-ray source about a rotational axis, and an X-ray detector having a plurality of detection elements. A blocking member defining a slit structure is provided between the X-ray source and the X-ray detector. The slits of the blocking member include two rows aligned in a channel direction of the detector elements, and two rows staggered in the channel direction, thereby to obtain a CT image with improved spatial resolution. Alternatively, instead of using a blocking member, some of the detection elements of at least one detection segment are staggered in the channel direction with respect to detection elements of another detection segment.

An X-ray computed tomography apparatus of this invention includes a first data detecting system which includes a first X-ray tube and a first X-ray detector and a second data detecting system which includes a second X-ray tube and a second X-ray detector. A reconstructing unit reconstructs image data on the basis of the data detected by at least one of the first and second data detecting systems. A monitoring unit monitors the first data detecting system. In a period during which the first data detecting system is normal, data acquisition is performed by both the first and second data detecting systems. In a period during which the first data detecting system is faulty, data acquisition is performed by the second data detecting system alone.

An X-ray computed tomography apparatus is provided to reconstruct image data based on projection data acquired by scanning a subject with an X-ray. A calculator is configured to calculate a dose efficiency index based on an expected dose of an X-ray radiated from an input device. The dose efficiency index indicates a diameter of a target which is identified at a predetermined detectability rate and has a predetermined CT value difference with respect to a surrounding CT value. A plan support system is configured to build up a scan planning screen on which the input expected dose is contained along with the calculated dose efficiency index. The scan planning screen is displayed on a display.

The angle of each collimator plate with respect to an X ray focal point is determined by fitting the collimator plate in grooves formed in upper and lower supports each having an integral structure. In addition, the warpage of each collimator plate is corrected and its flatness is maintained by fitting the periphery of the collimator plate which is on the X ray detector side in a corresponding groove of an abutment plate provided on the X ray detection surface side of the upper and lower supports. Furthermore, each collimator plate is supported by the corresponding grooves of the upper and lower supports and the corresponding groove of the abutment plate on at least three sides.

The rolling bearing of the invention to be incorporated in the compressor for fuel cell system comprises a fluorine-based grease containing a fluororesin and a fluorine-based oil, a urea grease containing a urea compound and a synthetic oil or a lithium complex grease containing a lithium complex and a synthetic oil encapsulated therein. In this arrangement, the grease deterioration of the rolling bearing incorporated in the compressor for force-feeding various fluids between machines can be prevented, making it possible to provide a fuel cell system which can maintain stable operation over an extended period of time.

In an X-ray computerized tomography apparatus, a water phantom is interposed between an X-ray tube unit and an X-ray detector in place of a subject under examination and a plurality of pieces of data detected by a plurality of X-ray detector elements are previously measured as a pieces of compensation data while shifting the X-focal point to different positions. Compensation data corresponding to the actual position of the X-ray focal point, which shifts according to the thermal state of the X-ray tube unit, is selected to correct detect data obtained for a subject under examination, permitting optimum compensation of variations in sensitivity among the X-ray detector elements for any position of the X-ray focal point, thereby preventing a ring-like artifact from being produced on a tomography image.

A method for manufacture of a bulk-type magnetic head capable of performing a frame recording operation. A pair of magnetic core blocks with magnetic gaps formed in butt surfaces thereof are slit and comb-toothed to produce a pair of head element couplers, and such element couplers are joined to each other in a state where the comb-toothed portions of one coupler are inserted into the slits in the other coupler while the respective coupling portions are butted to each other, whereby the in-line precision of the magnetic gaps can be enhanced.

A linear motion device has: a linear motion body externally fitted onto a shaft and making a relative linear motion along the shaft; a plurality of balls retained in a rolling element groove formed in an inner surface of the linear motion body, and rolling between the rolling element groove and the shaft; separators interposed among the balls; and a circulating path formed in the linear motion body and for circulating the balls from one end side of the rolling element groove to the other end side thereof; wherein the linear motion device is charged with grease containing base oil which is 220-395 in worked penetration defined by JIS K2220 and 50-500 mm2/s in kinematic viscosity at 40° C.
摘要:
An X-ray CT apparatus and image controlling method thereof that achieves a higher time resolution tomography image on a region of interest (ROI) of an object while reducing a total amount of X-ray irradiation exposure. The X-ray CT apparatus includes an X-ray source for irradiating X-rays over an object, a multi-slice detector provided facing to the X-ray source for acquiring wide range projection data by a first helical scan, a wide range projection data memory unit for storing the wide range projection data, and a narrow range projection data memory unit for storing the narrow range projection data of a designated region of interest (ROI) only. A controlling method for the X-ray CT apparatus acquires narrow range projection data by a second scan on the ROI along a slice direction and generates compounded projection data based on the narrow range projection data and the wide range projection data. The method generates images based on the compounded projection data.
