摘要
初始测试使用10 /spl倍/ 10 cm/sup 2/气室进行,其中包含三重气体电子倍增器(GEM)。使用临床乳房x线照相机(LORAD M III)对腔室进行Mo靶软x射线照射。使用CCD相机对图像进行光学检测。记录了几个幻象图像以表征器件参数。这项工作的总体目标是通过开发基于GEM的专用设备来推进数字放射摄影和核成像,主要是数字乳房x线摄影和PET/SPECT技术。
Initial tests were performed using a 10 /spl times/ 10 cm/sup 2/ gas chamber containing a triple gas electron multiplier (GEM). The chamber was irradiated by soft X-rays using clinical mammography machine (LORAD M III) with an Mo target. The images were optically detected using a CCD camera. Several phantom images were recorded for characterization of the device parameters. The overall objective of this work is to advance digital radiography and nuclear imaging, mainly digital mammography and PET/SPECT techniques, through the development of specialized devices based on GEM.
