Abstract

The invention discloses a fast imaging method and device based on a neural network positioning algorithm. The device includes a coding hole collimator, a detector, a signal readout unit, an MLP type neural network, an event statistics unit, and an image reconstruction unit. In the present invention, the surface of the scintillator of the detector is first gridded so that each grid corresponds to a coordinate, and then the MLP type neural network is trained so that the input is the response matrix of the detector array and the output is the coordinate of the ray action position. ability. During imaging, the positive and negative coding patterns corresponding to the coding hole collimator at the initial position and 90° rotation are respectively obtained; and then respectively reconstructed, combined with subtraction operation, wavelet transform, and high-frequency and low-frequency denoising, to obtain the image of the present invention.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an imaging method and an imaging device, in particular to a fast imaging method and device based on a neural network positioning algorithm. Background technique [0002] Gamma-ray imaging technology is a nuclear radiation detection technology that "photographs" radioactive substances. Since the advent of the "Anger" camera, people have started research on gamma-ray imaging technology. Existing gamma cameras are mainly used in astronomical research, nuclear medicine and nuclear radiation monitoring. [0003] In the field of medical imaging, gamma cameras mostly use parallel beam collimators for imaging, which have high spatial resolution, but low detection efficiency, large volume, and limited applicable environments; and the activity of tracer nuclides introduced into patients in medical diagnosis Generally reach 10 6 Bq level, the activity is too high. Not only that, but gamma cameras in the field of nuclear medicine requi...
