Project of the Agency for research and development support APVV-99-P06305
Period: 09/2005 - 12/2007
General manager: MAGIC TRADING CORPORATION, a. s. Liptovský Mikuláš
Project leader : Prof. Ing. Mudroň Ján CSc.
Part-project leader: Prof. Ing. Ivan Frollo, DrSc.
Project was focused on design, construction and verification of the kit of digital radiological system of a new generation:
- with energetic separation of detected photons,
- with X-ray source having a small focus (in order of 10 μm),
- with automatically controlled positioning for scanning and tomography.
Result contains user software equipment for acquisition, processing data and depicting X-ray frames. Mathematical routines make possible tomographic reconstruction, filtering the data and editing the final image.
Detecting unit based on monolithic GaAs X-ray sensors with direct conversion (period of 250 μm or less) works in so-called quanta regime. Electronic readout can separate protons into minimal 2 automatically selected levels. Part of the kit is X-ray source equipped with collimator, filters and automatically controlled aperture shutter.
The purpose of the kit is the built-in and mobile modifiable customer radiological systems with positioning making possible scanning and tomography.
First tomografic images of small metal samples were gained.
