  • X-ray imaging device providing enhanced spatial resolution by energy encoding
    Patent number: 11071506
    Abstract: A high-resolution x-ray imaging system encodes spatial information into x-ray energy by an encoding filter which changes the x-ray energy sensitivity of each detector at different portions of the detector. Acquiring successive images at different energies allows the fluence at different portions of a single detector to be isolated providing effective sub detector resolution.

  • Apparatus for tomography repeat rate/reject rate capture
    Patent number: 10957444
    Abstract: A system for capturing possible repeats or rejections of images occurring during tomographic imaging accommodates the wide variety of imaging protocols by providing groupings of common imaging protocol types and highlighting outliers of this grouping. The grouping may consider text descriptions of the images and their series, machine parameters such as tomographic and localizer scans, and overlap between images of any given series.
