| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As a result of evaluating the structure of an antiscatter grid which can effectively reduce the scattered photons in the cone beam computed tomography (CBCT),we showed that a cross type structure with carbon intermediate fillings can effective for image quality and scattered photon removal.However, since the existence of intermediate fillings degraded further improvement of image quality, a double slit type was newly developed and its effectiveness was simulated and investigated by actualexperiments.As a results, we showed the effectively of the double slit type grid for reduction of scattered photons without degradation of the image signal.On the other hand, some problems that the stable placement of the lead strips and the removal process of these lead strips are still indispensable.
