Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of medical imaging, in particular to an X-ray computed tomography system and method. Background technique
[0002] In X-ray computed tomography (Computed Tomography, CT), in order to obtain high temporal resolution, dual-source CT and partial scanning are often used. Partial scans are between half scans and full scans, and are advantageous when scanning organs or tissues in motion (such as the heart), because the shorter the scan time, the less likely the object to be examined is to move during the imaging process, thereby reducing The impact of motion artifacts on image quality was investigated.
[0003] Part of the scan has a rotational scan angle of less than 360Β°. At present, in partial scans of CT systems, the scan time is usually determined according to a fixed reconstruction angle, such as figure 1 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of scanning a field of measurement (Field of Measurement, FOM) with a fixed...
