Methods and systems for CT balance measurement and adjustment

The present application discloses a method for detecting an abnormity in an optical path or measuring and adjusting of a dynamic balance of a gantry in a CT system, comprising performing, by a gantry controlled by a controller, a test scan along an optical path of the CT system, the optical path being a path along which rays pass from a ray source to a detector. The method further comprises obtaining, by a processor, data relating to the test scan, and based on the data relating to the test scan. The method further comprises determining, by the processor, a status characteristic index of the optical path or an amount of dynamic imbalance of the gantry. The method further comprises analyzing, by the processor, a result of the status characteristic index; determining, by the processor, whether the optical path is abnormal, or determining whether a dynamic balance of the gantry satisfies a requirement based on a result of the analysis of the amount of dynamic imbalance.

Automatic analyzing apparatus, and method for detecting flow path clogging of the automatic analyzing apparatus

Provided is an automatic analyzer that has a plurality of mechanisms including a mechanism that suctions reaction waste liquid and a mechanism that suctions cleaning liquid, etc. on a sample and a probe surface, the automatic analyzer reducing pressure in a vacuum tank using a pressure-reducing pump, etc., and suctioning waste liquid by negative pressure in the vacuum tank. A contact point of a vacuum switch that is provided in the vacuum tank is closed when the pressure in the vacuum tank reaches a specified negative pressure, and then the analyzer becomes ready for analysis. If any flow path portion of any mechanism that connects with the vacuum tank becomes clogged, suctioning operation cannot be performed properly and analysis performance is affected. The vacuum pump is switched off at a timing at which each solenoid valve connecting to the vacuum pump is individually opened, and the time that elapses before the pressure in the vacuum tank reaches the specified negative pressure is measured. The measured time is compared with parameters in a normal case, and the presence or absence of an anomaly is determined.
