Embodiment Construction

[0033] For the sake of clarity, the same elements will have the same reference numerals in the various figures.

[0034] Figure 1a and 1b The main components of a radiation apparatus 10 for computed tomography are shown schematically. The device 10 is used in particular for medical examinations. The device 10 can of course be implemented in any other field, in particular in industry for non-destructive inspection and in safety for the detection of dangerous objects or materials.

[0035] The apparatus 10 includes an ionizing radiation generator 12 and a detector 14 configured to detect radiation emitted by the generator 12 . The object to be X-rayed is placed between the generator 12 and the detector 14 on the support 62 . Apparatus 10 also includes computing means, not shown, and which enables data from detector 14 to be processed to make the data available to an operator of the apparatus. This process can in particular produce a 2D or 3D reconstruction of the object to ...

Abstract

The invention relates to a radiation device comprising an ionizing ray generator (12) and a detector (14) configured to detect rays emitted by the generator (12), the generator (12) and the detector (14) being opposite to each other, the device (10) defining a useful volume (60) through which ionizing rays from the generator (12) and received by the detector (14) pass, the generator (12) comprising a plurality of sources (16), and a plurality of sources (16) distributed in a direction (18) and each emitting a substantially flat and fan-tail shaped ionizing beam (20), the sources (16) being arranged to radiate all useful volumes (60) without translation. Another subject of the invention is a method of implementing a device (10) according to the invention, which method comprises consecutively ordering the emissions of a plurality of of the sources (16).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a radiation device and a method for implementing the same. The invention can be implemented in the medical field, in industry for non-destructive inspection and in security for the detection of dangerous objects or materials. The invention also relates to a method of realizing the radiation device. The present invention is particularly useful in computed tomography. The present invention can also be practiced in conventional radiology without moving around the object to be X-rayed. Background technique [0002] It is well known that computed tomography, also known as scanning photography, implements a system equipped with an x-ray tube that emits a fantail-shaped collimated beam (called a "fan beam") in association with a strip detector disposed opposite the beam . The tube and detector are swiveled around the patient-accommodating table. With each revolution, the table is advanced along the axis of rotation of the...
