  • Patent number: 11670053
    Abstract: The invention relates to non-destructive imaging of the internal structure for safe and intuitive operator work. In the context of the invented method, electronic scanning first creates a virtual image of the surface of the object (5) whose internal structure is the subject of research. Part of the surface of the object (5) and the angle of scanning are set by voice or by movement of the operator's body (9). The virtual image of the surface of the object (5) is subsequently projected in the stereoscopic glasses (7), followed by creation of the virtual image of the internal structure of the object (5) for the same angle of scanning. The virtual image of the internal structure is projected in the virtual image of the surface of the object (5), or replaces the virtual image of the object (5).

  • Patent number: 10728996
    Abstract: The circular X-ray tube for the irradiation of the object (1) by X-radiation comprising the circular body (2) and at least two friction elements that rub together whereby forming a triboluminescent source of X-radiation. The one friction element comprises at least one circumferential element (3) arranged on the external circumferential side of the circular body (2) of the X-ray tube and the other friction element comprises at least one pressure element (4) that is pressed against the circumferential element (3), where the pressure element (4) is adapted for dragging upon the circumferential element (3), and/or at least one circumferential element (3) is adapted for pulling through under the pressure element (4). The X-ray instrument utilizes the circular X-ray tube and the imaging detectors (7) of ionizing radiation.

  • Publication number: 20190380669
    Abstract: The unit (1) according to the invention is intended for the irradiation of the object by the therapeutic beam (2) of particles from the external source (3) along with the concurrent CT scanning of the object using at least one scanning pair consisting of the source (4) of the scanning ionizing radiation and of the imaging detector (5) arranged on the opposite side. The unit is intended for radiotherapeutic preclinical studies on animals inside the existing radiotherapy vaults. The unit comprises the mobile platform (6) equipped with the adjustable table (7) and with a load-bearing means supporting a scanning pair with movable installation as to the adjustable table (7), where the load-bearing means, scanning pair and adjustable table (7) delimit the free working space (8) for unshielded travel of the therapeutic beam (2) of particles through the unit (1).

  • Publication number: 20190025231
    Abstract: Problem to be resolved: Non-destructive detection of directional and other defects in structured materials that cannot be detected by current detection and imaging methods. Problem solution: The problem has been resolved by inclining the incident beam of ionizing radiation irradiating the examined object (3), while knowing the geometry of positions of the object (3), source (2) of beams ionizing radiation and detector (8), including the size of the angle of incidence (?). Based on detection of an attenuated or dispersed beam of ionizing radiation an image is obtained of directional defects in the material with internal structure.

  • Publication number: 20180003652
    Abstract: For volumetric analysis of the elemental composition of a measured sample (3) the method of three-dimensional scanning is executing using fluorescence induced by electromagnetic radiation, in which the primary beam (1) of electromagnetic radiation is flattened and is directed at the measured sample (3) in which it irradiates the measured area (6). From the measured area (6) there exits fluorescence radiation, which is almost completely shielded by the shielding means (7) to a secondary beam (9), which is released towards the shielded detector (4) through the permeable area (8) formed in the shielding means (7). The secondary beam (9) projects the image of the measured area (6) onto the shielded detector (4), which records the data of the measured area (6) and subsequently uses the data to obtain an elemental composition of the measured sample (3), including the distribution of concentration of elements in the sample volume.
