Problems solved by technology

Although GE's dual-energy X-ray imaging system can read X-ray images in real time, it requires two X-ray exposures successively
Due to the need for two successive exposures, the dual-energy X-ray imaging system is very sensitive to the motion of the subject, and ghost images may appear between the acquired high-energy X-ray images and low-energy X-ray images
In addition, since the X-ray energy switch switches the exposure tube voltage of the X-ray tube, the X-ray focal point in the X-ray tube shifts between two exposures, which also causes high-energy X-ray images and low-energy X-ray images to be acquired. Ghosting between X-ray images

Abstract

The invention provides a method and a device for dual energy X-ray photography. The method includes: using a computer X-ray photography plate to image X-rays permeating an object; using a first X-ray filter to filter X-rays permeating the computer X-ray photography plate; and using a digital X-ray detector to image X-rays permeating the first X-ray filter. The method and the device use single X-ray exposure to obtain dual energy X-ray images, and accordingly false contour, such as false contour caused by movement of the object and false contour caused by tube voltage change of X exposure tubes, caused by twice X-ray exposure can be effectively avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of dual-energy X-ray photography, and in particular to a dual-energy X-ray photography method and equipment. Background technique [0002] Dual-energy radiography is used to acquire two X-ray images with different average X-ray energies (ie, low average energy and high average energy) at the same viewing angle, ie, a low-energy X-ray image and a high-energy X-ray image. By combining the low-energy x-ray image and the high-energy x-ray image, an image of a specific feature can be derived. For example, for an image of the chest cavity of a human body, only bone images and / or only soft tissue images may be derived using dual-energy radiography. [0003] Currently, there are two types of dual energy radiography systems on the market. One type of dual-energy X-ray imaging system is Fuji's Dual-energy X-ray imaging system, which realizes dual-energy X-ray images by using two CR (Computer Photography) plates and inserting ...
