Method and arrangement for detector correction for generating object radiographs
A method for correcting a detector configured to generate object radiographs and an arrangement to implement the method is provided. The method includes the steps of (a) providing the detector having setting values for a gain and offset correction, (b) capturing a plurality of object radiographs of a test object by the detector and generating a reconstructed three-dimensional representation of the test object based on of the object radiographs, (c) determining at least one quality value of the reconstructed three-dimensional representation, repeating the steps (b) and (c) at least once, wherein before the repetition, a parameter set is generated and a measurement sequence is implemented on the basis thereof, at least one setting value for a gain and offset correction of the detector being determined anew based on the measurement sequence; and (e) determining a preferred gain and offset correction based on overall determined quality values.
System and method for x-ray imaging alignment
A mobile radiography imaging system comprising a portable radiation source adapted to move in all degrees of freedom; a portable detector operable to detect the radiation from the radiation source, wherein the detector is adapted to move independently of the radiation source in all degrees of freedom; and wherein the radiation source and the detector each includes an alignment sensor in communication with a computer; wherein the computer is in communication with the radiation source and the detector; and wherein the position and orientation of the radiation source and the detector are established by the computer, and wherein the computer sends an activation signal to the radiation source to indicate when radiation may be emitted. In a preferred embodiment, the radiation source is prevented from emission of radiation until the detector and the radiation source have achieved predetermined alignment conditions.
