Description

Using the method for the random coincidence example of example mixing method building PET system
Technical field
The present invention relates to medical imaging device technical field, it is more particularly to using example mixing method building PET system The method of random coincidence example.
Background technique
Positron emission computerized tomography (Positron Emission Tomography) is the field of nuclear medicine ratio More advanced clinical examination image technology.By the way that human injection's radioactive tracer drug, the radionuclide in drug declines Raw a pair of of gamma-rays is sold of one's property, to obtain radiopharmaceutical in the intracorporal distribution map of people.What general radioactive tracer was chosen It is necessary substance in biological life metabolism, such as: glucose, protein, nucleic acid, fatty acid, short-life radioactivity on label Nucleic (such as 18F, 11C etc.) after injecting human body, passes through the aggregation for the substance in metabolism, Lai Fanying vital metabolic activity The case where, to achieve the purpose that diagnosis, after radioactive tracer infusion of medicine to human body, radionuclide decay goes out positive electricity Son, positive electron with tissue occur interaction and off-energy, this process mainly include photoelectric effect, Compton dissipate Penetrate effect.With gradually decreasing for positive electron momentum, bury in oblivion when being close to 0 with the negative electron in tissue, The γ photon of a pair of almost 180 degree angle is produced, and is detected by PET system detector.If two γ being detected Photon source is in a same positron-electron annihilation event, and at least one photon is scattered with medium, and such example claims Meet example for scattering.If two detected γ photons are from different positron-electron decay examples, such example It is called random coincidence example, PET system is collected to be met in example, and comprising really meeting example, scattering meets example, And random coincidence example needs to remove scattering and meets example and random coincidence example, in order to estimate in PET image reconstruction The share and distribution of the collected random coincidence example met in example of PET system, most PET systems by using The delay coincidence mode of same time window obtains random coincidence example, and estimates the random symbol in collected data with this The number and distribution for closing example, in PET system image reconstruction, random coincidence example is mainly detained by way of statistics subduction It removes, the statistical error in random coincidence example can be also transmitted in the image after amendment by this.
Summary of the invention
In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a kind of simple flows, and reduce error uses example mixing method Meet example immediately to construct in PET system.
To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical scheme that using example mixing method building PET system with Machine meets the method for example, includes the following:
(1) obtain that PET system is collected meets example immediately;
(2) counting rate of each crystal or counting in random coincidence example are counted;
(3) it will acquire crystal count to be distributed and normalize;
(4) selection a pair meets example and N and meets example to other;
(5) two pairs of selection are met that example or N meet γ photon 1 in example to other and γ photon 2 carries out two-by-two Combination, forms new four pairs or 2N to random coincidence example;
(6) four LOR or 2N LOR are combined into random coincidence example by new four pairs or 2N;
(7) judge whether LOR is eligible, by the removal of LOR except the visual field;
(8) the random coincidence example generating probability newly formed is calculated, according to formulaIt calculates, wherein Ncounts2For the γ photon that comes in self-loopa two corresponding crystal positions counting rate;
(9) LOR is saved according to weight value;
(10) data storage for sinogram or is met into data.
The value size of the further N value determines to generate the method multiple of random coincidence example.
In conclusion the present invention extracts in existing any two random coincidence example, a pair of of γ photon by this γ photon is freely combined, to generate any more random coincidence example, supplements the random coincidence example of single acquisition, and will Example removal is not met in combining random within the vision.The system of random coincidence example is generated by using the method for this patent It counts sufficiently high, the statistical error in random coincidence example is reduced to negligible degree, therefore drop can be skipped and adopted Sample, smoothly and the processes such as reverse interpolation, to reduce image reconstruction times.
Detailed description of the invention
Fig. 1 is the flow chart of the method for the random coincidence example that the present invention constructs PET system using example mixing method.
Specific embodiment
Referring to Fig.1 to the present invention using the embodiment of the method for the random coincidence example of example mixing method building PET system It is described further.
It include the following: to obtain PET system to adopt using the method for the random coincidence example of example mixing method building PET system What is collected meets example immediately;Count the counting rate of each crystal or counting in random coincidence example;It will acquire crystal count It is distributed and normalizes;Selection a pair meets example and N and meets example to other;Meet example or N to other for two pairs of selection The γ photon 1 and γ photon 2 met in example carries out combination of two, forms new four pairs or 2N to random coincidence example;It will be new Four pairs or 2N four LOR or 2N LOR are combined into random coincidence example;Judge whether LOR is eligible, except the visual field The removal of LOR;The random coincidence example generating probability newly formed is calculated, according to formulaIt calculates, wherein Ncounts2For the γ photon that comes in self-loopa two corresponding crystal positions counting rate;LOR is saved according to weight value;It will count According to being stored as sinogram or meet data.
The present invention extracts in existing any two random coincidence example, a pair of of γ photon, by this pair of γ photon Independent assortment supplements the random coincidence example of single acquisition, and will be not in the visual field to generate any more random coincidence example Removal in range saves obtained LOR according to the weight value being calculated, will save obtained data storage at Sinogram meets datagram, and the statistics for generating random coincidence example by using the method for this patent is sufficiently high, will be random Meet the statistical error in example and be reduced to negligible degree, thus can skip it is down-sampled, smoothly, and reversed The processes such as interpolation simplify random coincidence example and correct process, save image reconstruction times.
The value size of heretofore described N value determines to generate the method multiple of random coincidence example.
The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, protection scope of the present invention is not limited merely to above-mentioned implementation Example, all technical solutions belonged under thinking of the present invention all belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.It should be pointed out that for the art Those of ordinary skill for, several improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention, these improvements and modifications It should be regarded as protection scope of the present invention.
