3D Topographical X-ray Machine

Authors: ABDULWAHAB F. ALAHMARI;

3D Topographical X-ray Machine

Abstract

Introduction: The development of an imaging modality takes time, effort, and energy to make a new machine. Lack ofnew imaging machines is prominent these days; therefore, in this paper, a proposal of a new imaging modality that willhelp in imaging patients in emergency settings.Purpose: The aim of this paper is to propose a new imaging modality using images of the whole-body X-rays from 8directions and combine these images to create a 3-dimensional topographical image that allows to see the whole-bodyfrom different directions with a low radiation dose. Scrolling and rotating the 3D image to see different views of the samebody part in order to make sure if there is any pathology in the picture or not.Material and Methods: The idea was studied to determine what design would serve a better purpose. Many designs wereremoved due to overlapping between the X-ray tubes and detectors. The best theoretical design in the arrangement of theX-ray tubes and detectors was tested by using a piece of paper and drawing the X-ray tubes and detectors then gather thetwo sides of the paper to make a gantry.Results: The result will be a 3-dimensional X-ray image of the whole body that can be rotated to see different angles and views.Conclusion: This new imaging modality can be used in emergency settings, forensic imaging, or for imaging thegastrointestinal tract with contrast media to allow better visualization from different angles
