IMAGE RECONFIGURATION METHOD OF TOMOGRAPH, FAILURE DIAGNOSIS METHOD, TOMOGRAPH, AND MANAGEMENT PROGRAM OF SYSTEM MATRIX

摘要

When a measurement error is included in one or a plurality of detection elements in a tomograph, a system matrix calculated or referred in image reconfiguration operation is corrected according to the error so that impact of error is removed when such an error as fracture or failure occurs in a detector thus reducing artifact occurring in the image. The system matrix can be corrected according to the error by storing the positional information of a detection element including an error and the information about the degree of error in a storage and referring the store information in an image reconfiguration software.
