Study on the distribution of radiation intensity of X-ray machine for industrial CT
Background: X-ray machine is the most-extensively-used X-ray source in industrial CT
due to its anode effect and the restrictions of its own structure
the radiation intensity distribution is not uniform. Purpose: The aim is to research and measure the radiation intensity distribution of X-ray machine as a vital part of imaging correction and the foundation for the precise application of X-ray machine. Methods: The CsI(Tl) scintillation and photodiode detector is used to measure the radiation intensity distribution of the MXR225/22 X-ray machine (made by Swiss COMET Inc.) along with various angles on different axis. At the same time
the radiation intensity distribution is simulated by Monte Carlo method. Results: The “broadening effect” is observed
and the boundary radiation intensity distribution broadening phenomena can be explained thereby. The radiation intensity distributions of the large and small focal are compared
and the reason for the difference in the cathode ends is analyzed. And the 2D radiation intensity distribution of X-ray machine is given. Conclusion: The results showed that in the 20° opening angle range (?10°?+10°)
the radiation intensity distributes uniformly
the larger opening angle
the worse distribution uniformity. The radiation distribution extension occurs at the boundary of cathode side. Abstract
