| 20080240344 | X-ray tomosynthesis device - X-ray tomosynthesis device includes a target and a device configured for directing a particle beam of electrically charged particles onto the target which emits X-ray radiation for irradiating a sample to be examined when the electrically charged particles strike the target, in use. The target includes at least one support element on which a plurality of mutually spaced target elements are provided, and each mutually spaced target element only partially covers the at least one support element. A deflection device is provided, and the deflection device is configured for causing the particle beam to be deflected in order to strike the plurality of mutually spaced target elements, in use. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20090080603 | ONLINE IGRT USING DIGITAL TOMOSYNTHESIS - A system includes movement of a treatment delivering x-ray source to a treatment position, creation of projection images of a target using an imaging x-ray source while the treatment delivering x-ray source is disposed at the treatment position, and performance of digital tomosynthesis on the projection images while the treatment delivering x-ray source is disposed at the treatment position to generate a cross-sectional image of the target. A characteristic of an x-ray beam to be delivered by the treatment delivering x-ray source may be automatically modified based on the cross-sectional image. In some aspects, the imaging x-ray source translates in a plane normal to a beam axis of the treatment delivering x-ray source at the treatment position, and pivots about an axis passing through the imaging x-ray source during creation of projection images. Creation of the projection images may alternatively include emission of a respective x-ray beam from each of a plurality of sources of the imaging x-ray source, wherein the imaging x-ray source is stationary with respect to the treatment delivering x-ray source during creation of the projection images. | 03-26-2009 |
