Specific embodiment
The present invention is described in further detail with specific embodiment with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specification.
This programme be multiple kinds of energy nucleic cannot be carried out for collimator used in existing current gamma camera at Picture, and a kind of notch collimator production side for gamma camera that there is a problem of that detection efficient is low, and then propose Human Lung inside high-energy gamma rays can be imaged in method, the notch method for manufacturing collimator, have good sky Between resolution ratio and detection efficient.
This programme is in order to solve the problems, such as under nuclear accident the near field joint imaging for polluting multicore element in lung, and the one of proposition Kind can be specific as follows for the production method of the uniform redundant array (code aperture collimator) for the imaging polluted in lung:
1, the code Design method of notch collimator:
In all coded imaging modes, MURA coding mode is in auto-correlation coefficient, symmetry, percent opening, machining Aspect of performance suffers from preferable performance.In the design of MURA, MURA can be understood as a kind of special pattern of URA, even if Ranks number is equal.It is assumed that B in MURA modep×q, then p=q, and p, q are prime number.Any one element in MURA array Bij, definition can be defined according to URA definition mode coding mode.
In formula 1:
It is calculated according to above-mentioned formula 1, both whether the aperture of each element of available MURA, wherein 1 indicates not open Hole, 0 indicates aperture.
In radiation emulation experiment, radiation artificial human body model is a kind of stylized body mould of mathematics, the stylized body mould of mathematics It is to simplify each human organ, indicates human organ by a series of fundamental figures and combination.The geometry of human organ Mathematical formulae can be used to be described in size, and each organ is finally grouped together into manikin.In conjunction with It is simulated humanbody thoracic cavity illustraton of model referring to shown in attached drawing 1.It includes human body or so lung tissue 1,2, human heart 3, thymus gland Body 4, human spine 5 and shoulder blade 6, lung model are half of spheroid, and volume is a 11cm × 16cm × 24cm, density For 0.2958g/cm3;The density of human heart 3 is 0.9869g/cm3;The density of thymus gland body 4 is 0.9869g/cm3;Middle section For human spine 5, density 1.9362g/cm3;The density of shoulder blade 6 is 1.9362g/cm3
Human lung thoracic cavity width in the present embodiment is about 30cm, and notch collimator design size should compare human body Thoracic cavity is big, can just obtain whole projection, is twice of size of lung or so, i.e. the size d of notch collimator by collimator sizem =60cm.In view of current slow wire feeding metal working process and 3D printing technique, by the aperture size P of notchmIt is set as 1cm, therefore the matrix line number and columns 2N=D of MURA coding versionm/pm, according to prime number principle, therefore, N is taken under normal circumstances Value amplifies value on the original basis, however interior pollution gamma-rays imaging subnumber is relatively fewer, for etendue and The detection efficient of system, the value of N is smaller than calculated value herein, takes 31.Using nested technological design encoding board, therefore collimate Device designing unit is set as 31 × 2-1=61, and basic unit is MURA (31 × 31), is MURA (61 × 61) after nested.? Before collimation device carries out nesting, needs to carry out centralization processing to unit collimator, form centrosymmetric encoding array.It compiles The centralization of code plate just refers to from 0 row 0 of encoding array B column and does periodic transformation, until the element B of array center positioni,j, from From the point of view of effect, really with 0 row and 0 column for symmetry axis, B0,0For symmetrical centre, Lai Jinhang centralization.
It is MURA (61 × 61) collimator after nestingization referring to shown in attached drawing 2.Wherein solid position represents not open in figure Hole, element 1;Blank position represents aperture, element 0.The size of final collimator is dm=61cm.
2, the resolution ratio design of notch:
There are many definition for collimator geometric resolution, generally use the definition method of point spread function full width at half maximum, are (Full Width at Half-Maximum, FWHM): the distance for being two ideal point sources is D, and image restores latter two point The centre distance in source is the full width at half maximum of system point spread function, it is believed that point is just separated, and D is that the geometry of system is differentiated at this time Rate.
The side length in square numbering hole is Pm, then amplified image side length is m × Pm, m is the amplification factor of system;It compiles It is consistent with the single pin-hole collimator of same size that collimator geometric resolution is imaged in code holes.Therefore, in this experiment MURA (61 × 61) geometric resolution can be by asking the identical single hole collimator geometric resolution with notch size (1cm) to obtain.In conjunction with ginseng It is the imaging model schematic diagram of single pin-hole collimator according to shown in attached drawing 3.
It is MURA fundamental length that wherein AB length, which is size,;Distance is λ between two point sources P1, P2, and point P1's is projected as DE, P2's is projected as CD, and the projection of the two point sources is just separated.The distance between this time point is exactly the geometry difference of encoding board Rate.By geometrical relationship in Fig. 3, available following formula
Wherein, since measurement environment is the imaging of nearly lung, m=1.Radiation image-forming system can be learnt by formula (2) Resolution ratio is determined by magnifying power and encoding board nested cell size, unrelated with object distance b and focal length a.The geometry of this collimator is differentiated Rate Pm=1cm.
3, collimator thickness design:
One beam intensity is I0Monoenergetic gamma rays vertical irradiation to the absorbing medium with a thickness of L on when, gamma ray intensity It will decay with the increase of incident depth, law of force is according to exponential damping:
I0For the starting exposure rate of ray, I is to pass through the radiation exposure dose rate after substance, μ1It is corresponding photon to medium In line attenuation coefficient, L be absorbing medium thickness.The shape of collimator is fixed and not for lung's pollution collimator It can arbitrarily change, tungsten is better than lead for the linear attenuation characteristic of high energy gamma rays, therefore the material of collimator should use Tungsten W, atomic number 74, density 19.35g/cm3
The effective cross-section of absorbing medium is as shown in Equation 4:
Above formula is substituted into exposure rate decay formula, obtains 5 formulas:
Coding plate thickness mainly influences entire imaging system to gamma-ray shield effectiveness.This system design coding plate material Attenuation multiple to the 662keV energy-ray of 137Cs is 20 times, is that energetic gamma rays 5% can pass through encoding board.Cause This I=0.05 × I0, wherein the density of tungsten is ρ=19.35g/cm3, table look-up to obtain tungsten to the mass attentuation coefficient of 662keV energy For 0.08/cm, data are substituted into:
0.05×I0=I0×e-0.08×19.35×L (6)
The thickness L=1.93cm of this system MURA encoding board collimator.
Obviously, various changes and modifications can be made to the invention without departing from essence of the invention by those skilled in the art Mind and range.In this way, if these modifications and changes of the present invention belongs to the range of the claims in the present invention and its equivalent technology Within, then the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
