Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of medical equipment, and in particular relates to a method for taking films using an X-ray beam device for animals. Background Art

[0002] At present, X-ray imaging technology has been widely used in the medical field, including human medicine and animal medicine. Since X-rays have radiation and are harmful to human health, a beam splitter is usually installed at the X-ray outlet of the X-ray inspection equipment. The beam splitter can limit the irradiation range of X-rays to the range where the film needs to be taken, avoid irrelevant parts from being irradiated, and reduce the radiation dose received by the body during the filming.

[0003] Taking a high-quality X-ray requires choosing the appropriate X-ray dose according to the shooting part, projection area, and shooting distance. Too much or too little dose will affect the quality of the X-ray, thus affecting the diagnosis. Traditional ordinary veterinary beamers can only roughly set the parameters of several types of animal body sizes, such as tiny, small, medium, and large, on the X-ray fluoroscopy acquisition software. It mainly relies on the veterinarian to visually observe the animal's body size, and then select the most relevant parameters from the above-mentioned body size parameters before taking the film.

[0004] For example, patent application No. 202011373406.6 discloses an unmanned intelligent filming system and filming method, which includes a ray source, a camera assembly, a beam spotter and a control platform, wherein the ray source is used to emit rays, the camera assembly is used to obtain image information of the target to be filmed and its surrounding environment, the beam spotter is used to adjust the field of view of the rays and switch the filtering of the rays, the control platform is electrically connected to the camera assembly and the beam spotter, the control platform is provided with a processing and operation module and an auxiliary module, the processing and operation module can obtain the operating parameters of the camera assembly and the beam spotter, as well as the positional relationship between the current position of the target and the preset test position according to the image information obtained by the camera assembly, the auxiliary module can guide the target to move to the preset test position according to the positional relationship, and the control platform can control the ray source, the camera assembly and the beam spotter according to the operating parameters. The working parameters of the beam optics and the beam optics include the following steps: S1. Obtain image information of the target to be filmed and its surrounding environment through one or more cameras; S2. Process the image information obtained by the camera through the processing and operation module to obtain the positional relationship between the current position of the target and the preset test position, and control the operating parameters required by the camera: S3. If the positional relationship exceeds the preset threshold range, the control platform adjusts the camera according to the operating parameters in step S2, and the auxiliary module guides the target to move to the preset test position according to the positional relationship, and executes S1-S3, otherwise, executes S4-S5; S4, process the image information currently obtained by the camera through the processing and operation module to obtain the operating parameters of the beam optics and the X-ray source; S5. The control platform controls the beam optics and the X-ray source to irradiate the target to be filmed according to the operating parameters in step S4. The unmanned intelligent filming system and filming method are mainly used for medical filming of human body, and its parameter setting is not accurate, the dose of X-rays also has errors, and the filming is not clear.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] In this embodiment, a method for taking films using a veterinary X-ray beam-bearing device is proposed, which can accurately match appropriate working parameters, thereby making the filming clearer.

[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a method for filming a veterinary X-ray beam spotter device of the present invention relies on the use of the veterinary X-ray beam spotter device, the veterinary X-ray beam spotter device comprising a ray source, a distance measuring component, a beam spotter 1, a receiving substrate and a control platform, the ray source is used to emit rays, the distance measuring component is used to obtain image information of the target to be filmed and its surrounding environment, the distance measuring component is also used to measure the height from the to-be-detected part of the animal to be detected to the receiving substrate, the beam spotter 1 is used to adjust the radiation field, the receiving substrate is used to receive the rays emitted by the ray source and to place the animal to be detected, the control platform is electrically connected to the distance measuring component and the beam spotter 1, the distance measuring component comprises a binocular camera and a laser distance measuring module, the control platform, the binocular camera and the laser distance measuring module are all arranged on the beam spotter 1, the ray source and the receiving substrate are arranged correspondingly, the receiving substrate is located at the lower side of the beam spotter 1, the control platform is used to control the distance measuring component to measure the distance and generate working parameters according to the distance measuring result and control the working parameters of the ray source and the beam spotter 1 according to the working parameters, the specific structure of the beam spotter 1 is as shown Figure 2 As shown, the veterinary X-ray beam optics device 1 of the present invention can be configured accordingly according to the requirements, and its structural body is the prior art, and the specific and more detailed structure is not repeated. The filming method of the veterinary X-ray beam optics device 1 of the present invention further includes the following steps after the veterinary X-ray beam optics device 1 is used:

[0030] S1, establish a database, and enter the exposure parameters of different animals and their different body positions, then enter the error values ​​A1 of different animals, and then establish a connection between the database and the control platform. It can be understood that these different animals specifically include existing common pets, including some mammals and some exotic pets, such as cats, dogs, turtles, birds, etc. It can be understood that the prior art mainly relies on the experience of pet doctors to select parameters of several types of animal body shapes such as tiny, small, medium, and large on the control platform, which is easy to cause errors. The error values ​​A1 of different animals in S1 of the present invention are mainly calculated through a large number of data, such as it can be the average value of multiple error values ​​of the same animal. The error value can be mainly understood as the hair thickness of the animal, such as Tortoises have no hair, so their error value A1 is relatively small, while animals such as rabbits have thicker hair, so their error value A1 is relatively large. The range of the error value A1 in the present invention is between 0 and 10 cm, and the database in the present invention can be used to obtain more suitable exposure parameters for different animals and their different body positions by repeatedly performing experiments. The present invention distinguishes different types of animals through years of clinical animal photography experience. The absorption of X-rays by these animals is not matched according to a constant formula algorithm, but it is more directly useful to match the database. The formula obtained by the present invention is a relatively close number obtained based on a large number of results in the database. The present invention has proved through a large number of experiments that the larger the high-voltage setting parameter is, the more soft rays it brings;

[0033] However, the specific value D1 is calculated as follows: the distance from the binocular camera to the receiving substrate in S3 is Dmax1, the distance from the binocular camera to the part to be detected of the animal to be detected in S3 is Dmin1, and the calculation formula of the distance D1 from the part to be detected of the animal to be detected to the receiving substrate measured by the binocular camera in S3 is D1=Dmax1-Dmin1;

[0034] The specific value D2 is calculated as follows: the distance from the laser ranging module in S3 to the receiving substrate is Dmax2, the distance from the laser ranging module in S3 to the to-be-detected part of the to-be-detected animal is Dmin2, and the calculation formula of the distance D2 from the to-be-detected part of the to-be-detected animal to the receiving substrate measured by the laser ranging module in S3 is D2=Dmax2-Dmin2;

[0035] S4, the control platform automatically compares the data in the matching database according to the distance D from the to-be-detected part of the to-be-detected animal to the receiving substrate measured in S3 and the type of the to-be-detected animal automatically measured and matched, and generates a specific KV value. The KV value is calculated according to the formula KV=(D-A1)×2+X, where X is a supplementary value automatically generated in the database according to different animals and their different body positions, and 30≤X≤40;

[0036] S5, the control platform continues to generate MA and MAS values ​​according to the KV value generated in S4. It can be understood that the KV value represents the kilovolt value of X-ray photography, MA is the unit of radiography, and MAS is the exposure dose;

[0037] S6. Press the handbrake to complete the filming.

[0038] This embodiment does not impose any formal limitation on the shape, material, structure, etc. of the present invention. Any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiment based on the technical essence of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
