Translation Based Low-end Computed Tomography
RPI ID: 2014-031-201Innovation Summary:This invention introduces a linear scanning architecture for computed tomography (CT) that eliminates the need for rotational gantries. The system uses linearly translating X-ray sources and detectors moving in opposite or near-opposite directions. This arrangement enables tomographic imaging in environments where...

Dynamic Bowtie Filter for Cone-beam/Multi-slice CT
RPI ID: 2014-041-201Innovation Summary:This invention provides a dynamic bowtie filter for cone-beam and multi-slice CT scanners designed to adapt in real-time to patient anatomy. The filter includes both a highly-attenuating bowtie (HB) filled with liquid and a weakly-attenuating bowtie (WB) immersed within the same medium. By dynamically adjusting...

Stored Luminescence Computed Tomography
RPI ID: 2014-029-201Innovation Summary:This imaging method leverages stored luminescence from nanophosphors embedded in biological samples to produce high-resolution, three-dimensional images. Unlike traditional computed tomography that requires real-time excitation and signal capture, this system decouples excitation from readout. First, X-ray irradiation...
