Embodiment Construction

[0057] system( figure 1 ):

[0058] The present invention can be applied in the context of a radiology room where radiographic images of objects, human patients or animals are obtained.

[0059] The invention will be described with reference to a human patient, but the invention is also applicable to animals or objects of material.

[0060] The radiology room is generally equipped with a radiation source (1) coupled to a workstation (2) running software for patient identification and examination type identification.

[0061] The workstation may be linked to a Radiology Information System (RIS) so that generally (i.a.) stored patient demographic data or exam type data can be retrieved from the RIS and displayed and used.

[0062] The operating parameters for the radiation source can be set corresponding to the type of examination selected on the workstation.

[0063] These operating parameters include kV, MAS, source-object distance, etc.

[0064] The settings of the radiat...

Abstract

A region of interest first displayed on a model image of the object, is mapped onto corresponding location on the object defined relative to determined locations of predefined features. A source of radiation is set so that the region of interest on the object, is irradiated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention is in the field of computer and digital radiography, and more particularly relates to a method of recording x-ray images of a region of interest (ROI) of a patient, animal or object. [0002] A particular application of this invention relates to the recording of a radiographic image of a long-length object, such as a complete leg or a complete spine, by means of partial radiographic images, which together form a radiographic image of the long-length object. The partial image can be defined as the region of interest to be irradiated. Background technique [0003] In radiography, it may be necessary to take radiographic images of long-length objects, such as images of the entire spine or legs, or a large portion of these objects. [0004] In computed radiography (CR), x-ray images of long-length objects are recorded on an imaging plate (IP), which is placed in a holder in a fixed positional relationship and partially overlapping ea...
