Method for acquiring X-ray image of head of examination object e.g. human, involves superimposing primary and secondary images corresponding to examination region in primary image to form X-ray image of object

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The method involves generating a primary image (12) comprising portion of examination object (13) or entire examination object in examination region (11). The examination region in the primary image is reproduced using a collimator diaphragm to produce a secondary image (15). The primary and secondary images are superimposed corresponding to the examination region in the primary image to form X-ray image (17) of the object. #CMT# : #/CMT# An independent claim is included for X-ray imaging system. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Method for acquiring X-ray image of head of examination object e.g. human. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# Visibility of the anatomical structures can be improved and convenience of the radiologist can be increased. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows an explanatory diagram of X-ray image acquisition process. 11 : Examination region 12 : Primary image 13 : Examination object 15 : Secondary image 17 : X-ray image.
