One illustrative multi-modality detection system may include a distributed radiation source configured to irradiate an object under detection, a primary collimator configured to separate rays of the distributed radiation source into two parts, wherein one part is for CT detection and the other part is for XRD detection, a CT detection device configured to perform a CT detection to acquire a CT image of the object under detection, and an XRD detection device configured to perform an XRD detection to acquire an XRD image of the object under detection, wherein the CT detection and the XRD detection are performed simultaneously.
Abstract:
The present disclosure provides method and apparatus for marking a target in a 3D image. The method include steps of: acquiring Computed Tomography (CT) image data of a scene; rendering a 3D image of the scene using ray casting based on the CT image data; removing a transparent region from the 3D image based on a fixed 2D transfer function; and marking the target in the 3D image.
Abstract:
The present disclosure discloses an inspection system for quarantine and a method thereof. The CT technology is applied to the field of quarantine supervision, overcoming a problem of objects in an image of a single-view or a multi-view X-ray machine being overlapped, as well as a problem of organics including contrabands in a conventional CT image being not highlighted, not elaborated, and having bad contrast. Accuracy and efficiency of inspecting an object by human operator for quarantine inspection can be considerably improved, which is of a high application value.
Abstract:
Multi-spectral static CT apparatuses are disclosed. The apparatus includes a ray source in a form of multiple distributed spots, multiple columns of detectors, a data acquisition device, an article carrying and control device, and a multi-spectral projection data processing device. An object of the present disclosure is to combine static CT scanning technology with multi-spectral analysis technology. It has an advantage of a static CT system, such as high scanning speed, simple mechanic structure, and/or cost reduction due to omission of slip ring. It also can perform identification of material in an article, and can be widely applied in occasions such as safety inspection, and smuggling suppression at customs.
Abstract:
A CT system and method thereof are disclosed. The system includes: a conveyor mechanism; a first scanning stage configured to scan the object and generate a first digital signal; a second scanning stage spaced from the first scanning stage at a preset distance in a direction of the object's movement; a processing device configured to reconstruct a CT image of the object at a first image quality based on the first digital signal, and analyze the CT image; and a control device configured to adjust a scanning parameter of the second scanning stage based on an analysis result of the processing device to cause the second scanning stage to output a second digital signal. The processing device reconstructs a CT image of the object at a second image quality higher than the first image quality at least based on the second digital signal. The system takes full advantage of the distributed ray sources which replace the normal slip ring technology.

Abstract:
Methods for extracting a shape feature of an object and security inspection methods and apparatuses. Use is made of CT's capability of obtaining a 3D structure. The shape of an object in an inspected luggage is used as a feature of a suspicious object in combination with a material property of the object. For example, a false alarm rate in detection of suspicious explosives may be reduced.
