RADIATION DETECTION APPARATUS AND OUTPUT METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18446255 titled 'RADIATION DETECTION APPARATUS AND OUTPUT METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a radiation detection apparatus that is used to automatically control the exposure to radiation in a target region.
- The apparatus obtains information about the setting of the target region and the radiation transmission characteristic of an object in the target region.
- It sets a candidate region based on the target region.
- The apparatus monitors the radiation dose during incidence in the candidate region.
- It specifies a detection region where the monitored radiation dose falls within a predetermined range determined by the radiation transmission characteristic.
- The apparatus outputs the monitored radiation dose in the detection region.
Original Abstract Submitted
A radiation detection apparatus includes an obtaining unit configured to obtain information representing a setting of a target region that is a target of automatic exposure control, and information representing a radiation transmission characteristic of an object corresponding to the target region, a setting unit configured to set a candidate region based on the target region, a monitoring unit configured to monitor a radiation dose during incidence in the candidate region, a specifying unit configured to specify, as a detection region, a region where the monitored radiation dose falls within a range determined in accordance with the radiation transmission characteristic, and an output unit configured to output the radiation dose monitored in the detection region.
