Abstract

The X-ray appts. includes an image processing device with a digital image processor. The image processor detects and digitises the image data of the computer tomograph and the image signals of the X-ray diagnostic appts. The images are reproduced on a monitor. X-ray images can also be processed with a C-arc appts. with an X-ray generator and an X-ray image amplifier. The output image of the X-ray image amplifier is converted into an electrical signal using a TV camera. The signal is digitised and then displayed on a monitor.

Description

Es ist bekannt, Röntgenbilder mit Hilfe eines Röntgenaufnah­ megerätes mit einem Röntgenstrahler und einem strahlenelek­ trischen Wandler, z. B. einem Röntgenbildverstärker, zu erzeu­ gen. Die Bilder des Wandlers werden dabei auf einem Monitor wiedergegeben. Bei einem Röntgenbildverstärker kann hierzu eine dessen Ausgangsbild aufnehmende Fernsehkamera vorgesehen sein. Ferner ist es bekannt, Röntgenbilder mit Hilfe eines Computertomographen anzufertigen, durch den zweidimensionale oder dreidimensionale Aufnahmen angefertigt werden können. Einem Computertomographen ist dabei in üblicher Weise eine Bildverarbeitungseinheit zugeordnet, mit der die in digitaler Form vorliegenden Bilddaten des Computertomographen zur Er­ zeugung des endgültigen Bildes verarbeitet werden.It is known to take x-rays using an x-ray device with an X-ray emitter and a radiation electrode trical converter, for. B. an X-ray image intensifier The images of the converter are displayed on a monitor reproduced. With an X-ray image intensifier, this can be done a television camera recording its output image is provided be. It is also known to use an x-ray image Computer tomographs to be made by the two-dimensional or three-dimensional recordings can be made. A computer tomograph is usually one Image processing unit associated with which in digital Form of available image data of the computed tomograph for the Er generation of the final image are processed.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Röntgendiagno­ stikanlage so auszubilden, daß sowohl mit einem Computertomo­ graphen als auch mit einem Röntgenaufnahmegerät mit Röntgen­ strahler und strahlenelektrischem Wandler bei geringem Auf­ wand Röntgenbilder angefertigt und verarbeitet werden können.The invention has for its object an X-ray diagnosis To train stican system so that both with a computer tomo graphs as well as with an x-ray machine with x-rays radiator and radiation-electric converter with low opening wall X-ray images can be made and processed.

Diese Aufgabe ist erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruches. Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Röntgen­ diagnostikanlage wird das Ausgangssignal des strahlenelektri­ schen Wandlers, z. B. eines Röntgenbildverstärkers, digitali­ siert und in der Bildverarbeitungseinheit des Computertomo­ graphen weiterverarbeitet. Der Bildrechner der Bildverarbei­ tungseinheit ermöglicht eine Speicherung und Verarbeitung der Daten. Dadurch können z. B. Objekte hervorgehoben und Konturen verstärkt werden sowie Vergrößerungen angefertigt werden. Röntgenbilder und CT-Bilder können gleichzeitig auf einem Monitor nebeneinander dargestellt werden.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of the claim. With the X-ray according to the invention diagnostic system is the output signal of the radiation electrical rule converter, e.g. B. an X-ray image intensifier, digital siert and in the image processing unit of the Computertomo graphs processed. The image processor for image processing unit enables storage and processing of the Data. This allows z. B. Objects highlighted and contours are strengthened and enlargements are made. X-rays and CT images can be simultaneously on one Monitor displayed side by side.

Die Erfindung ist nachfolgend anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert.The invention is based on one in the drawing illustrated embodiment explained in more detail.

In der Zeichnung ist ein Computertomograph 1 dargestellt, dem eine Bildverarbeitungseinheit 2 mit einem Monitor 3 zugeord­ net ist. Die Bilddaten des Computertomographen 1 werden im Bildrechner der Bildverarbeitungseinheit 2 im Sinne der ge­ wünschten Bilddarstellung, z. B. der Hervorhebung eines Objek­ tes, verarbeitet und das jeweils erzeugte Bild auf dem Moni­ tor 3 in den Feldern 4, 5, 6 wiedergegeben.In the drawing, a computer tomograph 1 is shown, to which an image processing unit 2 with a monitor 3 is assigned. The image data of the computer tomograph 1 are in the image computer of the image processing unit 2 in the sense of the desired image display, for. B. the highlighting of an object, processed and the image generated in each case on the monitor 3 in the fields 4 , 5 , 6 reproduced.

Röntgenaufnahmen können auch mit einem C-Bogengerät 7 mit einem Röntgenstrahler 8 und einem Röntgenbildverstärker 9 an­ gefertigt werden. Das Ausgangsbild des Röntgenbildverstärkers 9 wird mit Hilfe einer Fernsehkamera 10 in entsprechende elektrische Signale gewandelt, die der Bildverarbeitungsein­ heit 2 zugeführt werden. Hier erfolgt eine Digitalisierung und eine Wiedergabe auf dem Monitor 3 im Feld 11.X-ray images can also be produced with a C-arm device 7 with an X-ray emitter 8 and an X-ray image intensifier 9 . The output image of the X-ray image intensifier 9 is converted with the aid of a television camera 10 into corresponding electrical signals which are supplied to the image processing unit 2 . This is digitized and displayed on monitor 3 in field 11 .

Die Bildverarbeitungseinheit 2 wird erfindungsgemäß sowohl zur Verarbeitung der Bilddaten des Computertomographen 1 als auch der Bildsignale der Fernsehkamera 10 benutzt. Auf dem Monitor 3 können CT-Bilder und Röntgenbilder des C-Bogenge­ rätes 7 gleichzeitig wiedergegeben werden. Ein Zusatzmonitor 12 an der Decke des Untersuchungsraumes macht die Bilder dem Arzt in Patientennähe zugänglich.According to the invention, the image processing unit 2 is used both for processing the image data of the computer tomograph 1 and the image signals of the television camera 10 . On the monitor 3 , CT images and X-ray images of the C-arm device 7 can be reproduced simultaneously. An additional monitor 12 on the ceiling of the examination room makes the images accessible to the doctor near the patient.
