Abstract
The present invention provides an automatic positioning system of computed tomography equipment and a method for automatically positioning computed tomography equipment. By the system and the method of the present invention, a geometric locating correction is able to be made on the equipment before operating it. After the correction, the focal spot of the X-ray tube of the computed tomography equipment and the center of the X-ray detector are on the same straight line, so that a projection image close to the real image can be obtained to avoid offset or distortion in subsequent 3D mapping.
