Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method and a computed tomography device (CT device) for generating CT images by spiral reconstruction of a partially cyclically moving examination object, preferably of a patient, the examination object being carried out in one pass by a spiral movement of at least one focus and at least one opposite detector is scanned, the scanning of the examination area takes place with a relative feed speed between gantry and couch, and a spatial image of the absorption coefficients is determined with a plurality of intersection planes of an examination volume on the basis of the data obtained by the scanning.
  • CT device computed tomography device
  • a similar method and a similar CT device are known for example from the published patent application DE 198 42 238 A2.
  • This document discloses a recording method for a periodically moving object, in particular a beating heart of a patient, with a movement and a resting phase by means of a CT device with a gantry rotating in a spiral around the examination object with a focus and a multi-cell detector, whereby for a complete Run or scan the feed rate of the patient bed and the speed of the gantry are coordinated with one another in such a way that sufficient image information for the best possible reconstruction can be collected during the resting phase of the periodically moving object.
  • the movement or rest phases can be determined by a connected ECG. There is no provision for changing the feed speed during the scan.
  • the disadvantage of this invention is that a relatively low feed rate is necessary and, as a result, a high dose load during the admission must be accepted.
  • Image planes is moved, while the feed rate is increased with increasing distance from the nearest image plane. This results in an almost sinusoidal course of the feed speed over the entire scanning path regardless of the movement situation of the scanned area.
  • the disadvantage of such methods is the poor recording quality due to the motion blur in the area of the moving part of the recording object, for example the heart of a patient.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of finding a method for generating CT images of an at least partially cyclically moving examination object, and a CT device for carrying out this method, which on the one hand enables cyclically moving areas with high
  • the inventors have recognized that this object can be achieved in that different feed speeds are used during a scan run, depending on whether an area with strong movement changes or a largely static area is being scanned.
  • a known reconstruction method from cardio-CT with a relatively low feed rate can be used when scanning the moving area and the normal reconstruction method with high feed rate can be used when scanning largely static areas.
  • the normal reconstruction method with high feed rate can be used when scanning largely static areas.
  • the feed rate is understood to mean the relative speed between the CT device and the examination object, usually a patient on a mobile couch.
  • the aforementioned cyclical movement does not relate to the movement of the entire examination object, but rather to the cyclical movement of a partial area relative to the entire examination object, such as, for example, the movement of the heart and possibly surrounding areas due to the movement of the heart.
  • the inventors now propose to improve the known method for generating CT images of a partially cyclically moving examination object, preferably of a patient, in the known method with one pass the examination object by a spiral movement is scanned by at least one focus and at least one opposite detector, the scanning of the examination area takes place with a relative feed speed v t between the gantry and the couch, and a spatial image of the absorption coefficients is determined on the basis of the data obtained by the scanning with a large number of sectional planes of an examination volume ,
  • the inventive with respect to the examination object (P), at least one static object region and at least one moving object region with cyclic self-movement are determined and, during a passage of the scanning of the examination object (P) in the at least one moving object region, a first feed speed (vi ) and in the at least one static object area a different, second feed rate (v 2 ) is used.
  • the examination object can be divided into moving and unmoving areas before the scan, so that the feed rate is adapted during the passage according to the area scanned in each case.
  • a high feed rate is selected for the stationary or static sub-areas of the examination object and a low feed rate in the moving area.
  • the methods known per se for picking up cyclically moving objects, preferably with rest and movement phases, can then be used.
  • the scan itself can be used to detect whether there is movement in the current scanning area or not. It is thus determined during the scan whether the currently scanned area is a moving sub-area or a static sub-area of the object, and the feed rate is regulated "online", as it were, depending on the movement situation of the scanned area.
  • the first variant which requires a preview to determine the differently treated subareas
  • it thus becomes automatic or semi-automatic during the scan run switched between a normal CT scan, in which all the determined detector data are used for the reconstruction, and a cardio CT scan, in which only detector data from certain phase sections of a cyclical movement are used for the reconstruction.
  • the semi-automatic switchover for example, the operating personnel can be informed of the necessary speed change by a corresponding signal and can make this change manually.
  • a reconstruction method can be used, as described in the published patent application DE 101 27 269 AI, when switching to the area with cyclical movement, the corresponding cardio method according to the published patent application DE 102 07 623 AI can be switched ,
  • the method according to the invention is not limited to the reconstruction methods specified here, but can be used in all known spiral reconstruction methods.
  • the inventors propose that a higher feed speed v 2 is used to scan a static object area and a lower feed speed Vi is used to scan a moving object area.
  • the position of the beating heart can be determined for dividing the examination object into static and moving object areas, predetermined ones also
  • Border areas which are also stimulated to move by the beating heart, can be included in the defined moving area.
  • Such a determination of static and moving object areas before the scan can be carried out, for example, by at least one topogram recording, sometimes also called a scout scan.
  • the examination object is moved in the longitudinal direction relative to the gantry with a non-rotating focus and detector, and a transparent image is obtained.
  • static and moving object areas can also be determined before the scan by at least one optical recording.
  • a particularly advantageous embodiment of the method according to the invention provides that the transition between the feed speeds takes place with a predetermined maximum acceleration. This avoids the fact that the object under examination, particularly if it is a patient, is stimulated by the process of excessive acceleration as a whole to movements which have a disruptive effect. If such an influence on the patient is to be completely avoided, a movable gantry can be used for patients standing still in the room, contrary to the otherwise customary design of CT devices for the relative movement from gantry to patient. In such a case, the patient or the examination object is not influenced by the change in the feed speeds.
  • the inventors also propose that moving and static object areas be determined during the scan and that a low feed rate (i) is selected when a cyclical movement is detected and a higher feed rate (v 2 ) is selected when a static state is detected.

It is essential, however, that when measuring the raw data the focus moves on a spiral path, as shown in FIG. 2, relative to the patient. This spiral path can be achieved on the one hand by advancing the patient in the z direction while simultaneously rotating the focus on a circular path. On the other hand, there is also the possibility to fix the patient in the room and only focus around the patient rotating on a spiral path. In this case, either a detector can also rotate or, in the case of a stationary, circularly arranged detector, it can only be moved linearly in the z direction.
