Detailed Description
Other advantages and effects of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the following disclosure, which describes the embodiments of the present invention with reference to specific examples. The invention may be practiced or carried out in other embodiments that depart from the specific details, and the details of the present description may be modified or varied from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Please refer to fig. 1. It should be noted that, the illustrations provided in the present embodiment merely illustrate the basic concept of the present invention by way of illustration, and only the components related to the present invention are shown in the drawings and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation, and the form, number and proportion of the components in actual implementation may be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may be more complex.
The detector is arranged in a medical system (including a system using a flat panel detector such as DR, CT and security inspection machine), the detector is connected with a computer to realize instruction interaction and image transmission, and meanwhile, the detector is connected with a high-voltage control box in a wireless way and is connected with a high-voltage generator, or the detector is directly connected with the high-voltage generator in a wireless way.
The intelligent dental exposure control method is suitable for wireless connection of the detector and the high-voltage generator, and comprises the following steps:
s1, opening an exposure window by a detector;
Before executing the step, the invention needs to detect whether the detector meets the exposure opening judging condition, and opens the exposure window after meeting the exposure opening judging condition, otherwise, the invention always circularly judges whether the exposure opening judging condition is met. The exposure start judging condition is that the real-time gray value detected by the detector is increased, and as other embodiments, the real-time gray value can be larger than a preset threshold.
In the embodiment of the invention, after the detector is started, the on-off condition between the detector and the high-voltage generator and the link delay information, namely the link delay time, are detected in real time, after the detector is preheated, the exposure breaking dosage threshold value is preset, and then the exposure breaking control can be carried out and the graph is acquired.
The detector itself also includes a processor, and can detect gray scale.
S2, intelligently identifying a radiation irradiation field through the exposure window in the area to be detected;
wherein the irradiation field is a tooth, gum and other areas;
In an embodiment of the invention, the intelligent identification radiation irradiation field position is determined by means of a plurality of local field-of-view or full field-of-view scans. Specifically, the irradiation field is selected by gray scale comparison through a plurality of fields of preset values, or the area covered by the teeth can be automatically identified as the irradiation field according to the image gray scale detection result through full-field scanning. For example, several large teeth deep in the mouth may be used as the irradiation field, the intermediate incisors may be used as the irradiation field, the teeth in the entire mouth may be used as the irradiation field, and the teeth and gums may be used as the irradiation field.
S3, when the exposure gate-off judging condition is met, the detector controls the gate-off exposure of the high-voltage generator;
In the invention, the exposure gate-off judging conditions comprise a first closing condition or a second closing condition, wherein the first closing condition is that the actual exposure time is greater than or equal to a set time threshold value, and the second closing condition is that the exposure dose is greater than or equal to a set dose threshold value.
Specifically, the first closing condition indicates that the irradiation field is not obtained after the detector is opened for a long time, and the detector does not need to work, so that the exposure window needs to be closed.
Specifically, the second closing condition indicates that the exposure window needs to be closed to stop exposure after the exposure dose reaches the preset value. In the present application, the expression is equal to or more than.
When the radiation irradiation field is determined through the plurality of local fields, the exposure dose reaches the set dose threshold, and the gray values of the plurality of local fields reach the set dose threshold according to the set logic relationship, namely, the gray values of the plurality of local fields are compared and judged with the set dose threshold according to the preset logic relationship.
In the embodiment of the invention, the set logic relationship is, but not limited to, weighted average, logical AND, logical OR, etc., when the set logic relationship is logical AND, the second closing condition is that the gray values of the multiple local fields of view are all required to reach the set dose threshold, that is, the minimum gray value of the gray values of the multiple local fields of view reaches the set dose threshold, when the set logic relationship is logical OR, the second closing condition is that the gray value of any local field of view reaches the set dose threshold, that is, the maximum gray value of the gray values of the multiple local fields of view reaches the set dose threshold, when the set logic relationship is weighted average, the second closing condition is that the average is calculated according to the weight of each local field of view, and the average value reaches the set dose threshold.
The invention considers that the link delay exists between the detector and the high-voltage generator in the information transmission process, so that a closing instruction is required to be issued before the detector exposure window is actually closed, thereby ensuring that the detector is accurately controlled to close the exposure window and realizing the exposure gate breaking.
Therefore, the invention generates the gate-off instruction according to the exposure gate-off judging condition and the link delay time, and controls the gate-off exposure of the high voltage generator according to the gate-off instruction.
Specifically, when the first closing condition is that the opening time of the exposure window is longer than the set time, the detector is considered that the irradiation field is not acquired, the exposure window needs to be closed, if the closing instruction is closing after the exposure breaking judgment condition t1 is met, and meanwhile, the link delay time is t2, wherein t2 is less than t1, then the control instruction needs to be sent at the time of t1-t 2.
S4, after the exposure window is closed, image acquisition is carried out on the detector.
The detector is based on the irradiation field of intelligent identification, and realizes accurate exposure dose control of the region to be detected under the condition of precisely controlling the exposure gate of the high-voltage generator.

In order to achieve the technical aim, the invention also provides an intelligent dental exposure control device, which comprises an exposure judging module, an intelligent identification module, an exposure switching-off control module and an image acquisition module;
the exposure judging module is configured to open an exposure window by the detector;
the intelligent recognition module is configured to intelligently recognize the irradiation field of radiation through the exposure window in the area to be detected;
the exposure gate-off module is configured to control the gate-off exposure of the high-voltage generator by the detector when the exposure gate-off judging condition is met;
the image acquisition module is configured to acquire images of the detector after closing the exposure window.
As a further limitation of the present invention, the intelligent recognition module is determined in a manner that recognizes through multiple partial or full field scans.
In the embodiment of the invention, the link delay between the detector and the high-voltage generator is considered in the process of information transmission, so that a closing instruction is required to be issued before the detector exposure window is actually closed, thereby ensuring that the detector is accurately controlled to close the exposure window and realizing the exposure gate breaking. Therefore, the invention generates a closing instruction according to the exposure gate-off judging condition and the link delay time, and controls the detector to close the exposure window according to the closing instruction.
