Problems solved by technology

[0004] Due to the geometry of oblique scanning, the trajectory of the X-ray source relative to the object is an oblique helical structure. Using the conventional helical reconstruction method for imaging will lead to the appearance of artifacts
Therefore, it is usually necessary to correct the data before image reconstruction, such as: interpolation processing or smoothing processing, but this correction processing will cause a certain degree of damage to the original data and affect the quality of the final reconstructed image

Embodiment 1

[0077] See figure 1 , Which is a flowchart of an image reconstruction method of oblique spiral scanning disclosed in the first embodiment of the application, and the method includes the following steps:

[0078] Step 101: Obtain data obtained by oblique spiral scanning;

[0079] Preferably, the data obtained by the oblique spiral scanning is cone beam data or wedge beam data. The cone-beam data is the corrected data obtained by the CT equipment through oblique helical scanning; the wedge-beam data refers to the corrected data obtained by the CT equipment through the oblique helical scan, and in order to facilitate back projection, a well-known parallel beam is used The data obtained after the reorganization method (or wedge beam reorganization). After reorganization, the data at each angle is composed of a series of ray clusters. Each cluster contains M rays (M is the number of detector layers). The projections of these M rays in the XY plane coincide with each other. The project...

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of medical images, in particular to an image reconstruction method and device of oblique spiral scanning. Background technique [0002] X-ray computed tomography (Computed Tomography, CT) is a technology that uses computer technology to reconstruct the cross-section of the measured object to obtain tomographic images. This technology utilizes when the ray penetrates the measured object, the absorption and transmittance of each part of the measured object are different. The transmitted rays are collected by a computer and the image is reconstructed through a certain algorithm. [0003] The existing CT equipment has a variety of scanning methods. With the gradual increase of the equipment's rotation speed, spatial resolution, detector width and the higher and higher requirements for scanning radiation dose, the inclined spiral scanning method can effectively reduce X The radiation damages certain special par...
