Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-gamma photon coincidence imaging system and method based on a slit-hole hybrid collimator. The system comprises a time coincidence module, a computer platform, the slit-hole hybrid collimator and a gamma photon detector, wherein the slit-hole mixed collimator is formed by forming a plurality of collimation slits and collimation holes in an alloy plate, and the alloyplate is a plane plate or a curved plate. According to the imaging method, the position range of radioactive nuclide decay is reduced to intersection points of several projection planes determined bya gamma photon event detected by a collimating slit in a gamma photon detector in a multi gamma photon coincidence event and an imaging range of the projection lines determined by the gamma photon event detected by a collimating hole in the gamma photon detector so as to obtain the distribution of the radionuclide in the measured range. The method is advantaged in that detection efficiency of themulti-gamma photon coincidence event is improved, a signal-to-noise ratio of a reconstructed image is improved, so the requirement on the total counting number of gamma photons is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of emission tomography, and in particular relates to a multi-gamma photon coincidence imaging system and method based on a slit hybrid collimator. Background technique [0002] Emission tomography is one of the important techniques for detecting the internal information of objects today, and it has a large number of applications in various research fields. By detecting the gamma photons emitted from the detected object outside the detected object and reconstructing the image, the internal information of the detected object can be observed in a non-invasive way. In the field of emission tomography, the most important imaging systems are Positron Emission Tomography (hereinafter referred to as PET), Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (hereinafter referred to as SPECT) and Compton Camera, etc. At present, both PET and SPECT have been widely used in clinical examination and diagnosis, including cancer,...
