Twin robotic X-ray computed tomography (CT) refers to CT systems in which two robotic arms are used to independently move the X-ray source and the X-ray detector around the object. This setup enables flexible CT scans by using robots to move the X-ray source and the X-ray detector around an object's region of interest. This allows scans of large objects, image quality optimization and scan time reduction. Despite these advantages, robotic CT systems still face challenges that limit their widespread adoption. This paper discusses the state of twin robotic CT and its current main challenges. These challenges include the optimization of scanning trajectories, precise geometric calibration and advanced 3D reconstruction techniques.
双机器人X射线计算机断层扫描(CT)是指使用两个机器人手臂围绕物体独立移动X射线源和X射线探测器的CT系统。这种设置通过使用机器人围绕物体的感兴趣区域移动X射线源和X射线探测器,实现了灵活的CT扫描。这使得能够对大型物体进行扫描、优化图像质量并减少扫描时间。尽管有这些优点,但机器人CT系统仍然面临一些限制其广泛应用的挑战。本文讨论了双机器人CT的现状及其当前的主要挑战。这些挑战包括扫描轨迹的优化、精确的几何校准和先进的三维重建技术。
