<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a computed tomograph to transmit high zone width data achieving a data communication speed within a range of gigaherts through an optical communication link. SOLUTION: A communication link is composed of a light emitting body 150, a light waveguide tube 120, an induction radiating wave chamber 110, and a light detector 180. The light emitting body 150 is installed on a gantry 15 of this computed tomograph. The light waveguide tube 120 generates internal total reflection bleach in response to an electric field, optical energy, or a magnetic field, or in respose to heat generated in the induction radiating wave chamber 110 instead of these. The light emitting body 150 generates a high zone width optical data signal which advances along the light waveguide tube 120 corresponding to data generated by detector disposition on the gantry 15. The induction radiating wave chamber 110 generates bleach of internal total reflection conditions at a part of the waveguide tube 120 disposed in the induction radiating wave chamber 110, so that the high zone width optical data signal is radiated from the waveguide tube 120 in the induction radiating wave chamber 110, and that it is not radiated outside the waveguide tube 120. The light detector 180 fixed in the induction radiating wave chamber 110 detects data reflected from the optical data signal.</p> |
