RADIATION DETECTOR, RADIATION IMAGING SYSTEM, RADIATION IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

  • This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18137504 Titled 'RADIATION DETECTOR, RADIATION IMAGING SYSTEM, RADIATION IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD, AND STORAGE MEDIUM'

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a radiation detector that has multiple pixels. These pixels directly convert radiation into an electric charge. The detector also includes a reading circuit that reads pixel signals from the pixels for each frame. There is a processing unit that processes the pixel signals read by the reading circuit. The processing unit is specifically designed to determine the background component present in the pixel signal of each pixel. It does this by using the values of the pixel signals read from the pixels in a frame where the pixel signal with the background component is being read.


Original Abstract Submitted

A radiation detector includes a plurality of pixels configured to directly convert a radiation into an electric charge, a reading circuit configured to read pixel signals from the plurality of pixels for each frame, and a processing unit configured to process the pixel signals read by the reading circuit, wherein the processing unit is configured to determine a background component contained in a pixel signal of each of the plurality of pixels by using values of the pixel signals read from the plurality of pixels in a frame in which the pixel signal whose background component is to be determined is read.
