Abstract

The invention provides a multi-layer X-ray detector image processing method and a terminal. The method comprises the steps of obtaining multi-energy images of a to-be-measured object, wherein the multi-energy images are multiple images obtained by X-rays with different energies generated after the X-rays pass through an X-ray detector of a multi-layer flat plate structure; fusing the multiple multi-energy images subjected to logarithmic transformation to obtain a fused image; determining a weighting coefficient according to a preset target, and performing subtraction according to the weightingcoefficient and the multi-energy images to obtain a subtraction image; and according to the fused image and the subtraction image, obtaining an image analysis result. According to the method and theterminal provided by the invention, the multi-layer X-ray detector is arranged; the multi-energy images are obtained through one-time exposure; the obtained images are subjected to logarithmic transformation and then fused, so that the gray levels of the images and the thickness of the to-be-measured object have a linear relationship; the images can be subjected to subtraction according to the weight determined by the target; information of the to-be-measured object is obtained more accurately and pointedly; and the readability of the multi-energy images is improved.
