Description

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of X-ray imaging, and in particular to an image correction method and device for a handheld backscattered X-ray imaging device. Background Art

[0002] A handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device is a handheld device that uses the principle of X-ray scattering imaging to detect contraband inside an object. It is used in application scenarios where the imaging detector and the X-ray source are imaged on the same side. The core working principle of a handheld backscatter X-ray detection device: a fan-beam X-ray source emits a flying spot X-ray light spot through a high-speed rotating chopper wheel, and the detector panel synchronously receives the scattered signal of each flying spot light spot. Usually, the backscatter device will be equipped with a photoelectric counter-beam switch at the slit of the chopper wheel to determine the starting signal of each slit. The signal emitted from each slit is spliced ​​into a line, and the detection signal of each slit is spliced ​​in turn to form a scattered perspective image.

[0003] Existing X-ray backscatter imaging equipment usually does not group the chopper wheel gaps, and only uses methods such as improving processing accuracy or digital image post-processing to smooth and filter the images with horizontal stripes.

[0029] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0030] The following is an analysis of the solutions in the prior art in combination with related technologies.

[0031] See also Figure 2 , is a schematic diagram of the chopper wheel and its marking method of Example 1 of the present application. The slits of the chopper wheel are crucial to the resolution and image quality of backscatter imaging. The optimal theoretical slit width and shape can be obtained through simulation methods. However, in the actual processing process, since the chopper wheel material is usually a high-density, high-atomic-number alloy material, the actual processing accuracy is difficult to guarantee, the width and shape of the five slits cannot be completely consistent, and the intersection position angle of the same slit and the X-ray is also inconsistent. That is, the following problems exist:

[0032] (1) Inconsistency of chopper wheel gaps: The direction parallel to the slits is recorded as the horizontal direction. The inconsistency between the five slits causes uneven brightness of each line during imaging, resulting in a horizontal striped image.

[0033] (2) Deviation of the X-ray intersection angle: Deviation of the intersection angle between the same slit and the fan-shaped X-ray will cause different scattering signals for direct and oblique X-rays, resulting in uneven brightness, which is manifested in the image as a situation where the vertical brightness is bright in the middle and dark on both sides.

[0034] The present application uses dual photoelectric switches for chopper wheel marking, combined with weighted statistical averaging, vertical calibration and horizontal calibration methods, to effectively solve the problem of uneven image brightness caused by inconsistent chopper wheel gaps and X-ray intersection angle deviation in handheld backscatter X-ray imaging equipment, thereby improving image resolution and quality.

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] Example 1

[0037] See also Figure 1 , is a flow chart of an image correction method for a handheld backscattered X-ray imaging device according to Embodiment 1 of the present application. The specific steps include:

[0038] S1: Acquire a scattered image by using the handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device.

[0039] In this embodiment, a scatterer plug made of a thick polyethylene block is usually used because it has a strong scattering ability for X-rays. The scatterer plug is placed in the detection area of ​​the handheld backscattered X-ray imaging device. Then the device is started, so that the fan beam X-ray source shoots out a flying spot X-ray spot through a high-speed rotating chopper wheel, and the detector panel synchronously receives the scattering signal of each flying spot; the dual photoelectric switch records the gap information of the chopper wheel to ensure that the image can be accurately grouped and calibrated later; the scattering signal received by the detector panel is processed to form a scattering image.

[0040] S2: Based on the grouping of the gaps and the weighted statistical averaging of several imaging lines generated by the gaps, a scattering mean signal is obtained.

[0041] In this embodiment, several imaging lines obtained from the same slit are combined into {a, b} two-dimensional data, where a is a row and b is a column. The data of different rows and the same column are summed and divided by the number of rows to obtain scattering mean signals with different numbers. The scattering mean signal is represented by a two-dimensional array {x, y}, where x is the number of slits and y is the number of data points for each slit.

[0042] For example, if the total number of scan lines is 2000, then each slit will generate 400 lines. The 400 lines obtained from the same slit are combined into {a, b} two-dimensional data, where a represents 400 rows and b represents 200 columns. The sum of the data in different rows and the same column is divided by 400. For five slits, five mean arrays are obtained, namely the two-dimensional array {x, y}, where x represents 5 slits and y represents the number of data points for each slit, 200.

[0043] S3: Calibrate the scattered mean signal in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction to obtain a vertical calibration coefficient and a horizontal correction coefficient.

[0044] In this embodiment, the step of calibrating the scattered mean signal in the vertical direction and the horizontal direction to obtain the vertical calibration coefficient and the horizontal correction coefficient specifically includes steps S31 to S32, and each step is described in detail below.

[0045] S31: Use the least square method to perform quadratic curve fitting correction on the scattering mean signal of the gap to obtain the vertical calibration coefficient.

[0046] First, the scattered data of each gap is processed, and several line data of the same gap are weighted averaged according to the gap number to obtain the averaged single line data of each gap. The least squares method is used to fit the single line data to a quadratic curve to obtain the target curve equation; wherein the target curve equation is the curve with the minimum sum of the squares of the vertical distances from all data points to the curve. The specific expression is:

[0047]

[0048] Among them, S(a,b,c) is the sum of the squares of the vertical distances of all data points to the curve; y i is the actual intensity value of the ith data point; x i is the horizontal coordinate value of the single-line data; a, b, c are the fitting coefficients to be solved by the least squares method.

[0049] After completing the curve fitting, a correction vector is obtained, and the correction vector is used as a calibration compensation vector in the vertical direction to convert the original data points into calibrated data points.

[0050] For example, a curve fitting correction is performed on a curve of 200 points of single-line data to make it uniform in vertical intensity. A set of 200-dimensional correction vectors is recorded as the vertical calibration compensation vector (A 1 , A 2 ...A 200 ). The specific fitting method is: through observation and theory, it is known that the single-line curve shows a distribution of bright in the middle and dark on both sides. The least squares method is used to fit the quadratic curve. 1 ,y 2 ...y 200} is converted into 200 data points, with x being the horizontal axis value, ranging from 1 to 200: (1, y 1 ),(2,y 2 ), ...(200, y 200 ); Assume that the curve equation is y = aX 2 +bx+c, the curve equation found by fitting can minimize the sum of the squares of the vertical distances of all data points from the curve.

[0051] In order to obtain the minimum value, the partial derivatives of S with respect to a, b, and c are calculated and set to zero. Through the linear equation system, the values ​​of a, b, and c are obtained. Specifically:

[0052] The partial derivative is:

[0053]

[0054]

[0055] Simplifying the equation, we get:

[0056]

[0057] The above is a linear equation system with three unknowns a, b and c. The coefficients a, b and c are obtained by matrix inversion or other linear algebra methods. The quadratic curve is transformed into a horizontal straight line tangent to the vertex through vertical correction. The vertex coordinates are So the conversion factor of each point to a horizontal line is That is, all points are multiplied by this coefficient to complete the vertical calibration.

[0058] S32: performing weighted summing and averaging on the scattered mean value signal after vertical direction calibration to obtain a horizontal calibration coefficient.

[0059] The focus of horizontal calibration is to compensate for the processing error of the gap to ensure the consistency of the light flux. The specific compensation method is to perform weighted summing and averaging of the scattered mean signal after vertical calibration, normalize it to the signal of the maximum gap, and obtain the normalization coefficient; perform horizontal calibration on the signal of each gap according to the normalization coefficient.

[0060] For example: perform weighted summing and averaging of the 200 points of the five slits; each of the five slits has 200 points, the first 200 points are averaged as S1, the second is S2, and so on.

[0061] The obtained data is {S1, S2, S3, S4, S5}, which is normalized to the maximum value S1, and then five normalization coefficients {x1, x2, x3, x4, x5} are obtained, x1 = 1, x2 = (S1 / S2), x3 = S1 / S3, ..., x5 = S1 / S5.

[0062] S4: performing image correction on the scattered image according to the vertical calibration coefficient and the horizontal correction coefficient.

[0063] In this embodiment, after the device starts scanning, 200 data points of the first gap are obtained, which are recorded as {p1, p2, ..., p200}. The pixel value after calibration is The data points of the second seam {q1, q2, ..., q200}, the calibrated pixel values ​​are: And so on, the calibration of the entire scanned image is completed.

[0064] See also Figure 3 , which is a schematic diagram of the imaging principle of the handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device of Example 1 of the present application. The fan-shaped area is recorded as a reflective coating of the diffuse reflection sensor used to distinguish the gap grouping. The chopper wheel is also equipped with a reverse photoelectric switch for determining the start and end of the gap, and the diffuse reflection photoelectric switch is used for the gap grouping signal output.

[0065] Furthermore, an image correction method for a handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device is applied to the handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device, the handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device comprising: a fan beam X-ray source, a chopper wheel, a dual photoelectric switch, and a detector panel; the fan beam X-ray source is used to generate X-rays; the chopper wheel is arranged in front of the fan beam X-ray source, and has a plurality of slits for modulating X-rays; the dual photoelectric switch is used to mark the chopper wheel, the first photoelectric switch is used to record the beginning of each imaging line, and the second photoelectric switch is used to encode the slits on the chopper wheel; the detector panel is used to receive backscatter X-ray signals.

[0066] In one embodiment, a handheld backscatter X-ray imaging device includes a fan beam X-ray source, a chopper wheel, a dual photoelectric switch, and a detector panel. The fan beam X-ray source generates flying spot X-ray spots through a high-speed rotating chopper wheel, and these spots can penetrate an object and scatter inside it. The chopper wheel is a key component of the device, and a number of slits are opened on it for modulating the emission of X-rays. During the rotation process, these slits allow the X-rays to be sequentially irradiated onto the object in the form of flying spots, thereby realizing the scanning of the entire object. The detector panel is used to receive the X-ray signal scattered back by the object, and after the signal is converted and processed, a backscatter perspective image of the object can be formed. In addition, a dual photoelectric switch is also used for chopper wheel marking, one anti-reflection photoelectric switch is used to record the beginning of a line, and one diffuse reflection switch is used to realize the encoding of the gap. A reflective coating is sprayed between the two gaps on the chopper wheel, and the gaps behind the reflective coating along the rotation direction begin to be numbered; after the gap grouping is obtained, the basic conditions for correcting the inconsistency between the gaps are met.

[0067] The handheld backscattered X-ray imaging device proposed in this application is suitable for a variety of application scenarios, such as security inspections in public places such as airports and stations, and monitoring of cargo transportation, etc. Its portability and high-precision imaging capabilities enable the device to perform efficient and accurate detection work in various complex environments.

[0068] In summary, the image correction method for a handheld backscattered X-ray imaging device proposed in this embodiment 1 is mainly aimed at correcting the uneven brightness of the image caused by the inconsistent gap of the chopper wheel. First, a dual photoelectric switch is used to mark the chopper wheel, one photoelectric switch records the beginning of a line, and one diffuse reflection switch realizes the encoding of the gap, and the gap is numbered to provide basic conditions for subsequent correction. Use a scatterer plug, such as a thick polyethylene block, to obtain a scattered image for image correction. Then, the multiple lines of each slit are weighted and statistically averaged according to the slit number to obtain the scattered mean signal with different numbers. Then perform vertical calibration, sum the array of each slit, obtain the averaged single-line data, and use the least squares method to fit the quadratic curve; after completing the vertical calibration, perform horizontal calibration to compensate for the processing error of the gap and ensure the consistency of the light flux. Finally, after obtaining the vertical calibration coefficient and the horizontal correction coefficient, you can start to calibrate the scanned image, so as to solve the problem of horizontal stripes and uneven brightness of the image.
