Patent number: 9795357Abstract: The present invention relates to providing guiding information for operating an X-ray imaging system. In order to provide an improved positioning distance control facilitating the work flow, an X-ray imaging system (10) is provided, comprising a moveable X-ray source (12) and/or a moveable X-ray detector (14). The system further comprises a plurality of object-surface detecting sensors (16), a positioning detection arrangement (18), a processing unit (20), and a display unit (22). The sensors are arranged such to detect object data of objects located between the X-ray source and the X-ray detector. The positioning detection arrangement is provided to detect the current position of the X-ray source and/or the X-ray detector and the position of the sensors.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2012Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Bart Carelsen, Peter Belei

Publication number: 20150230768Abstract: The present invention relates to the adjustment of movable X-ray imaging systems. In order to provide a facilitated alignment and positioning for a movable X-ray imaging system with reduced hardware requirements and allowing an intuitive operation, a movable X-ray imaging system (10) for aligning an object of interest and an X-ray imaging arrangement in relation to each other is provided. The system comprises an X-ray imaging arrangement (12) with an X-ray source (14) and an X-ray detector (16), at least one camera (18), a data processor (20), and a display (22). The at least one camera i) is either attached to the X-ray imaging arrangement or ii) is attachable to the object of interest. The at least one camera is configured to provide a first image of at least one reference point. The data processor is configured to relate the first image to first projection parameters of a first X-ray image of the object of interest in relation to the object.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 13, 2013Publication date: August 20, 2015Inventor: Peter Belei
