Computed tomographic scanner 1 also has the examining table 9 of the patient P for settling examine.Examining table 9 comprises a pedestal 10, which is provided with a blocks design for really accepting the patient support plate 11 of patient P.In this embodiment in accordance with the invention, patient support plate 11 is arranged on pedestal 10 like this, and this patient support plate 11 can be regulated along the direction of system axis S by pedestal 10 relatively.Therefore, patient support plate 11 can project with the patient P two-dimensional x-ray jointly imported for taking patient P in such as helical scanning, in the door opening of frame 2 or passage 12.In addition, in this embodiment in accordance with the invention, pedestal 10 in height scalable.
By schematically show, two-dimensional x-ray projection that tomography computer 13 computing of computed tomographic scanner 1 is taken by x-ray system or rebuild faultage image, 3-D view or three-dimensional data group according to the measurement data of two-dimensional x-ray projection or measuring-signal.
Computed tomographic scanner 1 also has a computing unit 14 be connected with tomography computer 13, can be performed and perform for operating the calculation procedure with computer for controlling tomoscanner 1 by this computing unit 14.Computing unit 14 need not be designed to independent computing unit 14 at this, but can also be integrated in computed tomographic scanner 1 as described tomography computer 13 in addition.
In this embodiment in accordance with the invention, a calculation procedure 15 is loaded in computing unit 14, this calculation procedure 15 implement a kind of by of the present invention for improving the method organizing faultage image quality, the axis of this tissue or organize axis to be not parallel to the system axis of patient support plate surface or x-ray system when patient lies low on patient support plate.Calculation procedure 15 represents a kind of special operational mode for computed tomographic scanner 1 at this and can from moveable data medium, such as CD16 or memory stick or load computing unit 14 from server 17 via network 18, the internal network of this network 18 can be public network also can be clinic or hospital.
In this embodiment of the invention, need the spinal column checking patient P, that is, should generate faultage image continuous mutually before and after the spinal column of patient P along the direction of system axis S, these faultage images should have quality high and constant as far as possible.
For this reason, in the method, the spacer of the spined body region of a width patient P tool is obtained first in a way known.After patient P lies low on patient support plate 11, this patient support plate 11 is in height adjusted to by pedestal 10, makes the system axis S of x-ray system extend past the spinal column of patient P at least approx.The surface of patient support plate 11 and the system axis S of x-ray system extend in parallel to each other at this.As shown in Figure 1, x-ray system is made from its vertical home position 90-degree rotation to the position of side.In this embodiment in accordance with the invention, in the described lateral location of x-ray system, take spacer, wherein, the direction linearly along system axis regulates with the patient support plate 11 of patient P.
Schematically show the spacer 21 of shooting in fig. 2, as it illustrates on the display device 22 of computing unit 14.At this, the current trend drawing system axis S in the spacer 21 that spinal column W is shown visibly.In addition, in spacer 21 record or the centrage M of labelling spinal column W and spinal column W organize longitudinal axis G, wherein, the longitudinal axis G that organizes of spinal column W have recorded two S shapes of spinal column W.The axis M of spinal column W and organize the labelling of longitudinal axis G or record can manually by the entering apparatus of attaching troops to a unit in computing unit 14, such as computer mouse or automatically such as realize by algorithm for pattern recognition.
As clearly visible from Figure 2, the centrage M of spinal column W is not parallel to system axis S and extends, and organize longitudinal axis G also relative system axis S tilt.If as only regulated patient support plate 11 along the direction of the system axis S of IZ positions, center such as showing point-blank when carrying out helical scanning at large so far, then centrage M with organize longitudinal axis G scarcely on the IZ of Hui Deng center.
For this reason, according to labelling in spacer 21, the trend of centrage M and the known trend of system axis S, convert by computing unit 14 control signal regulating patient support plate 11 and pedestal 10 along the distance between system axis S computer center line M and system axis S to.In this embodiment of the invention, system axis S extends along the direction of the z-axis line of the rectangular coordinate system drawn in Fig. 1 and centrage M relative system axis S only has deviation along x-axis line direction.Therefore, the control signal calculated is the signal relevant with the altitude mixture control of pedestal 10.
In an identical manner according in spacer 21 labelling, the known trend of organizing the trend of longitudinal axis G and system axis S, convert by computing unit 14 control signal regulating patient support plate 11 or pedestal 10 along the distance between system axis S computation organization longitudinal axis G and system axis S to.In this embodiment of the invention, longitudinal axis G relative system axis S is organized also only to have deviation along x-axis line direction in said case.Therefore, the control signal for organizing longitudinal axis G to calculate equally also is the signal relevant with the altitude mixture control of pedestal 10.
In addition, for the centrage M in spacer 21, centrally can specify some positions or location point like this by line M, should tilt especially like this around tipping line K in these location point place frames 2 or overturn, make to take X-ray projection by x-ray system perpendicular to centrage M when helical scanning.User can one by one manually given inclination angle or by automatically determining corresponding inclination angle labelling or mark these important position or location points in spacer 21 based on centrage M and system axis S.Generated the corresponding skewed control signal tilted for frame 2 by computing unit 14 by these given information.But also can represent or select whole piece centrage M in this case, thus making frame 2 mate continuously or tilt according to the trend of centrage M and system axis S practically when helical scanning.For this reason, move towards to produce in order to tumble continuously around tipping line K or the corresponding skewed control signal of banking motion by line M centered by computing unit 14 whole.
In an identical manner, inclination angle can being determined according to organizing longitudinal axis G and system axis S like this for organizing longitudinal axis G, making perpendicular to organizing longitudinal axis G to take X-ray projection.Corresponding skewed control signal can be generated by computing unit 14 by spacer.
For implementing helical scanning, user can select centrally line M to scan or along organizing longitudinal axis G scan, wherein, all has the control signal about pedestal 10 altitude mixture control and the control signal about frame 2 or x-ray system inclination for these two kinds of flexible programs.
If user selects centrally line M to carry out helical scanning, then in the case of the embodiment of the invention, x-ray system around etc. center IZ or system axis S rotate time, the direction along system axis S or z-axis regulates patient support plate 11 continuously.This adjustment movement superposes with the altitude mixture control of pedestal 10 according to the control signal calculated before, is realized by this altitude mixture control, and when regulating patient support plate 11 along the direction of system axis S or z-axis line, the centrage M of spinal column such as to move through at the center IZ.Simultaneously according to the skewed control signal calculated before, frame 2 or x-ray system tilt accordingly around tipping line K, and due to the wave-like of centrage M, this corresponding inclination is that a kind of continuous tilt along four-headed arrow a direction moves.
As alternative, user can select along organizing longitudinal axis G to carry out helical scanning.In this case, x-ray system around etc. center IZ or system axis S rotate time also regulate patient support plate 11 continuously along the direction of system axis S or z-axis line.This adjustment movement superposes with the altitude mixture control of pedestal 10 according to the control signal calculated before, is realized again by this altitude mixture control, the center IZ such as organize that longitudinal axis G moves through of spinal column when patient support plate 11 regulates along system axis S or z-axis line direction.Edge is organized to the helical scanning of longitudinal axis G, frame only tilts once by the control signal calculated and remains on this position in scan period.
In helical scanning in above-mentioned two situations, can by the high-quality faultage image of tomography computer 13 reconstruction patients P spinal column because when taking X-ray projection axis M or organize longitudinal axis G move through x-ray system etc. center IZ.
For controlling described method, such as, on computing unit 14, preferably provide the user interface of a pattern.By the button of pattern such as can also make computing unit 14 reference system axis S according to centrage M or organize longitudinal axis G calculate in order to regulate in the case pedestal 10 height control signal, and according to centrage M or organize longitudinal axis G calculate skewed control signal.In addition, can the adjustment of other optional sweep parameter be carried out by known mode itself and finally start helical scanning.
Different from the above embodiment of the present invention, for helical scanning can only use the centrage of spinal column or only use describe spinal column organize longitudinal axis, be therefore also only the flexible program selected respectively and produce corresponding control signal.
Except the spacer of side, at least can also produce preferably along another width spacer in direction from front to back, so as such as can to carry out due to spinal column centrage or organize longitudinal axis to move towards accordingly and may need, move along the y direction lateral adjustments respect to one another of x-ray system and patient.If that is centrage or organize longitudinal axis to have corresponding y component, then except the adjustment of height can also carry out the lateral adjustment along y-axis line direction.If cause centrage or organize longitudinal axis to move through isocentric adjustment movement and comprise x component and y component, be then commonly referred to as the lateral adjustments of relative system axis S.
The application of described method is not confined in the helical scanning of spinal column.And also can scan other tissue according to the method, such as Thigh bone.The inclination of frame or x-ray system always need not be carried out at this.This frame also can keep its vertical setting shown in FIG when helical scanning.
Also there is this probability, that is, frame or x-ray system also can tilt, as long as centrage has corresponding trend by axis that is vertically extending around another, that erect perpendicular to system axis and tipping line.
In this embodiment of the invention, the adjustment movement along each axis direction of rectangular coordinate system is implemented by examinating couch.But adjustment movement also can partly be realized by frame completely or only, this frame for this reason must corresponding adjustment.
