Outline of Final Research Achievements |
An acrylic phantom had a diameter of 3 cm. A 5 mm diameter iodine region and a 2 mm diameter aluminum rod were in the phantom. Employed transXend detector consisted of six Si(Li) segment detectors with the dimensions of 10x10x1 mm. Two dimensional maps were obtained for acrylic-iodine thicknesses, and acrylic-aluminum thicknesses with x and y axises as ratios of measured electric currents by the segment detectors. The acrylic phantom was scanned from 0 and 90 degrees with the scan step of 0.4 mm. The thicknesses of acrylic, iodine and aluminum at each scan point were estimated, and the thickness distributions of materials were obtained. With these thickness distributions, tomographies were reconstructed by ML-EM method. With our method, tomograpies were obtained by a small number of transmission measurements.
