A transillumination computed tomography system has been developed for studies of the breast, testes, neonatal skull and peripheral limbs. Initial experiments on test objects have emphasised the problems of scattering and geometrical dependence of lesion detection that are likely to be encountered in conventional diaphanography, but have demonstrated the feasibility of computed tomography as a means of improving the sensitivity of the transillumination technique. The problems of transillumination computed tomography have been addressed and further areas of research identified.
一种用于乳房、睾丸、新生儿颅骨和四肢外周研究的透照计算机断层扫描系统已被开发出来。对测试对象的初步实验强调了在传统透照法中可能遇到的散射问题以及病变检测的几何依赖性问题,但已证明计算机断层扫描作为提高透照技术灵敏度的一种手段是可行的。本文探讨了透照计算机断层扫描的问题,并确定了进一步的研究领域。
