Abstract: An X-ray imaging system includes multiple X-ray tubes from pulsed sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array of X-ray tubes. The tubes move simultaneously relative to an object on a pre-defined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Each individual X-ray tube in each individual source can also move rapidly around its static position in a small distance. When a tube has a speed that is equal to group speed but with opposite moving direction, the tube and X-ray flat panel detector are activated through an external exposure control unit so that the tube stay momentarily standstill. It results in much reduced travel distance for each X-ray source tube and much lighter load for motion system with wider and faster sweeping angle, and image analysis can also be done in real time.

Abstract: A C-Arm X-ray imaging system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources in motion to perform efficient and ultrafast 3D radiography is presented. X-ray sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array. X-ray sources move simultaneously relative to an object on a pre-defined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Each individual source can also move rapidly around its static position in a small distance. When a source has a speed that is equal to group speed but with opposite moving direction, the source at one C-arm end and X-ray flat panel detector at other C-arm end are activated through an external exposure control unit so that source stay momentarily standstill. The C-arm provides 3D X-ray scan imaging over a wide sweep angle and in different position by rotation. The X-ray image can be analyzed by an artificial intelligence module for real-time diagnosis.

Abstract: An X-ray imaging system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources to perform highly efficient and ultrafast 3D radiography is presented. There are multiple pulsed X-ray sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array of sources. The multiple X-ray sources move simultaneously relative to an object on a pre-defined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Electron beam inside each individual X-ray tube is deflected by magnetic or electrical field to move focal spot a small distance. When focal spot of an X-ray tube beam has a speed that is equal to group speed but with opposite moving direction, the X-ray source and X-ray flat panel detector are activated through an external exposure control unit so that source tube stay momentarily standstill equivalently. 3D scan can cover much wider sweep angle in much shorter time and image analysis can also be done in real-time.

Abstract: A transport system with curved track pair is constructed for multiple pulsed X-ray source-in-motion to perform fast digital tomosynthesis imaging. It includes a curved rigid track pair with predetermined curvature, a primary motor stage car loaded with X-ray sources and wheels loaded with tension or compression springs. The car is driven by primary motor mounted at base frame and an engaged gear mounted at the car. The car can carry heavy loads, travel with high precision and high repeatability at all installation orientations while motion vibration is minimal. It is also scalable to have a larger radius. Track angle span usually can be from about ten degrees to about 170 degrees. During imaging acquisition, X-ray sources can sweep precisely from one location to another. The car has enough clearance to move in its path without rubbing wheels on tracks.

Abstract: An X-ray imaging system using multiple pulsed X-ray sources in motion to perform high efficient and ultrafast 3D radiography using an X-ray flexible curved panel detector is presented. There are multiple pulsed X-ray sources mounted on a structure in motion to form an array of sources. The sources move simultaneously relative to an object on a predefined arc track at a constant speed as a group. Each individual X-ray source can move around its static position at a small distance. When an individual source has a speed equal to group speed, but with opposite moving direction, the individual source and detector are activated. This allows source to stay relatively standstill during activation. The operation results in reduced source travel distance for each individual source. 3D radiography image data can be acquired with much wider sweep angle in much shorter time, and image analysis can also be done in real-time.

Abstract: Image quality for flat-panel array tomosynthesis acquisition is not equivalent to CT because of the reduced number of image angles that are acquired in DT, and also image quality is not uniform throughout the volume and decreases near to the fixed detector array and the fixed flat-panel source. The present invention provides a system for obtaining an X-ray image of a subject (1) in which an emitter panel (3) and detector (7) are movable on a smart armature (9). In this way, image quality can be improved, for example by combining acquisitions taken from different orientations, thereby approaching the quality of conventional CT imaging, whilst still maintaining the lower cost and dose of conventional DT imaging.

Abstract: A radiographic imaging system provides a digital x-ray detector embedded in a patient bed. A patient lying normally on the bed, either flat or at an angle, is positioned above the digital detector. A frame assembly is attached to the bed under the patient and movably secures the digital detector. The frame assembly includes motorized control configured to move the digital detector in the x-y plane of the detector according to commands transmitted by system operators or by automatic system instruction.
