Dual energy imaging inspection system using dual layer flat panel detector
This paper proposes a novel dual energy (DE) subtraction based inspection method which uses dual layer X-ray flat panel detector (FPD) to acquire dual energy images via single exposure. Single layer FPD imaging method is introduced, dual layer FPD based dual energy imaging mechanism and system is detailed as well. Different kVp, same kVp with different filters induced X-ray spectrum is analyzed, and dual energy image characteristics of chest phantom are research by performing kVp switching, dual layer FPD imaging tests. The results show that dual energy images captured by dual layer FPD represent attenuation difference of different body part related to different x-ray spectrum, and dual layer FPD method need lower dose compare to kVp switching without move artifact. Finally dual energy image registration method for dual energy FPD is proposed, bone enhanced and bone suppressed images are acquired by performing dual energy subtraction after registration. Experiment results show dual energy subtraction images using dual layer flat panel detector can improve visualization that doctor diagnosis needed, and the subtracted images present better contrast than kVp switching method does.
