  • Publication number: 20210114385
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for making an easy-to-view computed tomography (CT) sheet. The method is implemented by the following modules, including an X-ray tomographic scanning device, a computer system, an operating system, and a printing system. The X-ray tomographic scanning device is composed of an X-ray generator, an X-ray tube, and an X-ray detector. The X-ray generator of the X-ray tomographic scanning device is used for X-ray generation. Through increasing detection accuracy of the detector inside the scanning device, radiation dose can be effectively reduced, thereby avoiding large radiation hazards to a patient during scanning. In this way, image quality is improved without increasing the radiation dose or even when the radiation dose is reduced. In addition, a processing method for image reconstruction is further improved under joint action of multiple groups of X-rays, thereby further improving data generation.
