Embodiment 1

[0054] Embodiment 1: see Figure 1 to Figure 4 , a radioactive source location and reconstruction method based on a multi-energy system response matrix, using a coded aperture imaging system for measurement, the coded aperture imaging system includes a coded plate 3 and a detector group 4, wherein the detector group 4 is A×A Detectors distributed in a matrix, the radioactive source plane 1 detected by the detector group 4 through the coding plate 3 is M×M pixel positions, including the following steps:

[0055] (1) Divide the energy range that the coded aperture imaging system can detect into N energy windows, and open up a memory space with a size of A×A for each energy window to store the count data of A×A detectors , and the initial value of the detector count is zero;

[0056] An energy value is selected in each energy window as a characteristic energy value under the energy window; in this embodiment, we select an energy value at or near the median of each energy window....

[0077] (1) The common gamma energy range is 50keV-1.5MeV. We also set the energy range that the coded aperture imaging system can detect to 50keV-1.5MeV, and divide the entire energy spectrum in this range into 4 energy windows , are energy window 1: 50-200keV, energy window 2: 200-500keV, energy window 3: 500-800keV, energy window 4: 800-1500keV;

[0078] We open up a memory space for each energy window, assuming that the detector group 4 is a 3×3 array, that is, 9 detectors, then the memory space is also a 3×3 matrix, and the 9 detectors and the memory space The nine elements correspond to each other;

[0079] In each energy window, we have to choose an energy value as the characteristic energy value under the energy window. Here, we respectively take 122keV, 356keV, 662keV, and 1173keV as the characteristic energy...

Abstract

The invention discloses a radioactive source positioning reconstruction method based on a multi-energy system response matrix. The method comprises the following steps of dividing an energy range detected by a coding aperture imaging system into mutiple energy windows; selecting a characteristic energy value under each energy window; acquiring a system response matrix under a specific energy valueunder each energy window through simulation; during actual measurement, counting measured data according to the energy windows to finally form a plurality of groups of projection data corresponding to the energy windows, then adopting a maximum likelihood expectation maximization algorithm to reconstruct reconstructed images of the energy windows, and adding the reconstructed images under all theenergy windows a to obtain a final reconstructed image. According to the invention, a more accurate system response model is created. The method is suitable for a single-point source, a plurality ofsingle-point sources with the same energy, a plurality of single-point sources with different energy and a shape source, the complex radiation scene can be accurately reconstructed, a reconstructed image with high quality and high fidelity can be provided, and the method is high in transportability and suitable for equipment with different geometric structures and different materials.
