The present application discloses a CT system and a detection apparatus for the CT system. The detection apparatus includes: a high-energy detector assembly including a plurality of rows of high-energy detectors arranged along a predetermined trajectory; a low-energy detector assembly including a plurality of rows of low-energy detectors arranged at intervals along the predetermined trajectory, the low-energy detector assembly and the high-energy detector assembly being disposed in a stack; a number of rows of the low-energy detectors is smaller than a number or rows of the high-energy detectors; and each row of the low-energy detectors covers a row of high-energy detectors.

CT system and detection device for CT system

The present disclosure provides a decomposition method based on basis material combination. In the present disclosure, a scanned object is divided into a plurality of regions, the basis material combinations used in each of the divided regions are different each other, and the scanned object is re-divided according to the re-determined equivalent atomic number of its each point until the change on decomposition coefficient meets certain conditions. Thereby, a decomposition method based on dynamic basis material combinations is realized, which reduces a decomposition error caused by improper selection of the basis material combination and improves the accuracy of the decomposition and substance identification of the multi-energy CT.

Decomposition method and apparatus based on basis material combination

Methods and system for decomposing a high-energy dual-energy X-ray CT material are disclosed. In the method, two types of effect such as Compton effect and electron pairing effect which dominates are reserved and the influence of the other effect such a photoelectric effect is removed so as to improve the accuracy of the material decomposition. The unique advantage of the present disclosure is to effectively remove the error of the calculated atomic number Z due to directly selecting two effects during processes of material decomposition in the conventional dual-energy CT method. This may greatly improve the accuracy of dual-energy CT identification of the material, and it is important to improve the conventional dual-use CT imaging system applications, such as clinical therapy, security inspection, industrial non-destructive testing, customs anti-smuggling and other fields.
