Abstract
A device and a method for image reconstruction at different X-ray energies that make it possible to achieve image reconstruction with higher accuracy. A device for image reconstruction at different X-ray energies includes: an X-ray sourcethat irradiates a specimen to be imagedwith X-rays; an energy-dispersive detectorthat detects a characteristic X-ray emitted from the specimen to be imaged; a signal processor that quantifies the peak of the characteristic X-ray detected by the detector; and an image reconstruction device that reconstructs an image on the basis of a signal from the signal processor.
