Present system collectivity Scheme Design is as shown in figure 5, mainly include three chief components: measuring device system
System, kinetic control system, software analysis process system.
Measuring device system is the most crucial part of whole-body counter system, is mainly consisted of two parts, detector and
Data acquisition and gamma-spectrometric data are handled.
Detector is the component part of measuring device system most critical, below with each two pairs of high purity germanium detectors and iodine up and down
Change sodium detector and illustrates technical solution of the present invention to illustrate.As shown in fig. 6, the present invention proposes to distinguish position by two groups of detector cells
In the upper and lower for being detected human body, wherein one group of detector cells is by two high purity germanium detectors and two Nal detectors
Composition, high purity germanium detector is staggeredly placed with Nal detector, side view as shown in fig. 6, top view as shown in fig. 7, iodate
Sodium detector is identical as the size of high purity germanium detector, i.e. the data of Nal detector acquisition can be in the same acquisition position
Initial value is used as HpGe detection.Rack, supply convertor, motion controller, servo-driver, motor etc. are omitted in Fig. 6
Control parts of motion and refrigerating plant for high purity germanium detector.Specifically, when detection, by two groups of top and the bottom detector list
Member is placed on interested monitoring position, as shown in figure 8, such as head, neck, lung, joint part.
Data acquisition and gamma-spectrometric data, which are handled, mainly to be realized by four steps:
The first step, the determination of detector initial value.In order to guarantee that there is Nal detector in tetra- regions RA, RB, RC and RD
Initial value, if the upper and lower surface in a region is all high purity germanium detector, you can't get sodium iodide detections in the region
The initial value of device, so the same detector position, the above is high purity germanium detector, and here is Nal detector, or conversely,
It deliberately will dislocation design up and down in this way.No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, No. 1', No. 2', No. 3', 4' detector are put according to Fig. 8
Station acquisition 2 minutes, acquisition will be placed on a, b, c, d, a', b', c', the initial value of this 8 area detector power spectrums of d',
In, the data that No. 2 and No. 3 detectors are acquired acquire No. 1' and 4' detector as the initial value in the region b and the region c
Initial value of the data as the region a' and the region d'.Meanwhile No. 2, No. 3, No. 1', 4' detector acquisition data be also used as b',
The initial value in the region c', a, d, as shown in formula (1).
Upper detector unitLower part detector cells
Second step, the first time acquisition of detector data.In same plane, high purity germanium detector and Nal detector are handed over
Mistake arrangement is placed originally because the region for placing Nal detector originally needs to become high purity germanium detector after being rotated by 90 °
The region of high purity germanium detector needs to become Nal detector.Two groups of top and the bottom detector cells are rotated clockwise the simultaneously
1 90 degree of acquisitions a period of time, wherein the power spectrum of 1,2,3, No. 4 four detector of upper detector unit, which counts, is respectivelyThe power spectrum counting of lower part detector cells 1', 2', 3', No. 4' four detector is respectivelyAs shown in formula (2).
Upper detector unitLower part detector cells
Third step, second of acquisition of detector data and the processing for acquiring data for the first time, the two carry out simultaneously.It visits
Second of acquisition method therefor for surveying device data is similar with second step, and two groups of top and the bottom detector cells are rotated clockwise simultaneously
2nd 90 degree of acquisitions a period of time, wherein the power spectrum of 1,2,3, No. 4 four detector of upper detector unit, which counts, is respectivelyThe power spectrum counting of lower part detector cells 1', 2', 3', No. 4' four detector is respectivelyAs shown in formula (3).While detector acquires data, computer can be in second step
Collected counting is handled.
Upper detector unitLower part detector cells
Further, it carries out interested monitoring position to be divided into RA (R according to pickup areaa+Ra')、RB(Rb+Rb')、RC
(Rc+Rc')、RD(Rd+Rd') four parts, then, the interior irradiation monitoring acquired after rotating clockwise the 2nd 90 degree, which counts, is
Shown in formula (4);And so on, the acquisition data of the 90 degree of acquisitions the 3rd time of rotation the 3rd rotate n-th of 90 degree of acquisition n-ths
Acquisition data.It illustrates, theoretically, rotating to the 2nd 90 degree can be obtained complete data, but still can be according to different application
The number of detector cells rotation is determined to the difference of count requirement.
After rotating the 2nd 90 degree
4th step, the processing of gamma-spectrometric data.The present invention proposes the power spectrum C after being overlappedH+NCarry out further scale
Correction, as shown in figure 9, by the standard power spectrum C of itself and HpGeRProgress index correction is compared and obtains final power spectrumAs shown in formula (5).
5th step, rotation or translates two groups of detector cells up and down, is monitored to next region of interest, repeats the
One step to the 4th step.
It is to be illustrated with each four detectors up and down above.As long as it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that meeting same
The type of two detectors is different above and below position, such as top is high purity germanium detector, then lower section must be that sodium iodide is visited
Survey device.Conversely, top is Nal detector, then lower section must be high purity germanium detector.Four are selected mainly to consider
The cost of detector and the area coverage of lung.After detector number changes, the angle of rotation also will and then change, and need full
Foot: after once rotating, the position for placing high purity germanium detector originally is changed to placement Nal detector, places iodate originally
The position of sodium detector is changed to placement high purity germanium detector.
Kinetic control system of the invention will use a multivariant control platform, including software control system,
Major function is to adjust movement, the rotation etc. of two groups of detector cells, with the relative position for ensuring to pop one's head in and human body holding is suitable.
In addition, by using gear, rack gear, lead screw, worm screw and the worm-gear combination for having self-locking function, and the transmission combination can motor
Control can also carry out standby control manually.
Software analysis process system preferably uses the agent of the radionuclide intake according to No. 68 publication of ICRP
The interior irradiation of the parameters such as Committed effective dose caused by coefficient of discharge and standard GB/T 18871-2002 unit intake research and development
