| 20080232544 | METHOD FOR SYNCHRONISING AN EMITTER AND A DETECTOR IN A COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCANNER - In a computed tomography scanner provided with an emitter for emitting a beam of radiation through an object to be analysed and a detector for acquiring radiographies of the object, the detector generates a synchronisation signal corresponding to its state of activation for acquiring the radiographies, and the emitter is controlled via the synchronisation signal in such a way that the beam of radiation will be emitted when the detector is already activated. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080232543 | METHOD FOR ACTIVATION OF AN EMITTER OF A COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCANNER - In a computed tomography scanner having an emitter for emitting a beam of given radiation through an object to be analysed, a detector for receiving said beam after the beam itself has traversed the object, and a rotating arm, which supports the emitter and the detector and rotates the emitter and the detector about the object along a series of angular positions, there is generated a succession of first pulses, each of which activates the detector in one respective angular position, and a succession of second pulses for activating the emitter so that it will emit a dose of radiation in each angular position, associated to which is a respective dose of radiation in such a way as to pre-define a distribution of doses of radiation along the series of angular positions. | 09-25-2008 |
| 20080232539 | METHOD FOR THE RECONSTRUCTION OF A PANORAMIC IMAGE OF AN OBJECT, AND A COMPUTED TOMOGRAPHY SCANNER IMPLEMENTING SAID METHOD - In a computed tomography scanner, the panoramic image of an object to be analysed is reconstructed by: acquiring volumetric tomographic data of the object; extracting, from the volumetric tomographic data, tomographic data corresponding to at least three sections of the object identified by respective mutually parallel planes; determining, on each section extracted, a respective trajectory that a profile of the object follows in an area corresponding to said section; determining a first surface transverse to said planes such as to comprise the trajectories; and generating the panoramic image on the basis of a part of the volumetric tomographic data identified as a function of said surface. | 09-25-2008 |
