27、. Radiographic imaging is possible because different materials have different X-ray attenuation coefficients. In CT images, the X-ray linear attenuation coefficients are represented as different CT grey values (or in false colour). For conventional radiography the three-dimensional object is X-rayed
28、 from one direction and an X-ray projection is produced with the corresponding information aggregated over the ray path. In contrast, multiple X-ray-projections of an object are acquired at different projection angles during a CT scan. From these projection images the actual slices or volume are rec
29、onstructed. The fundamental advantage compared to radiography is the preservation of full volumetric information. The resulting CT image (2D CT slice or 3D CT volume), is a quantitative representation of the X-ray linear attenuation coefficient averaged over the finite volume of the corresponding vo
30、lume element (voxel) at each position in the sample. The linear attenuation coefficient characterizes the local instantaneous rate at which X-rays are attenuated as they propagate through the object during the scan. The attenuation of the X-rays as they interact with matter is the result of several
31、different interaction mechanisms: Compton scattering and photoelectric absorption being the predominant ones for X-ray CT. The linear attenuation coefficient depends on the atomic numbers of the corresponding materials and is proportional to the material density. It also depends on the energy of the
32、 X-ray beam. 4.2 Advantages of CT Computed tomography (CT) is a radiographic method that can be an excellent examination technique whenever the primary goal is to locate and quantify volumetric details in three dimensions. In addition, since DIN EN 16016-2:2012-01 EN 16016-2:2011 (E) 6 the method is
33、 X-ray based it can be used on metallic and non-metallic samples, solid and fibrous materials and smooth and irregularly surfaced objects. In contrast to conventional radiography, where the internal features of a sample are projected onto a single image plane and thus are superposed on each other, i
34、n CT images the individual features of the sample appear separate from each other, preserving the full spatial information. With proper calibration, dimensional inspections and material density determinations can also be made. Complete three-dimensional representations of examined objects can be obt
35、ained either by reconstructing and assembling successive CT slices (2D-CT) or by direct 3D CT image (3D-CT) reconstruction. Computed tomography is thus valuable in the industrial application areas of non-destructive testing, 2D and 3D metrology and reverse engineering. CT has several advantages over
36、 conventional metrology methods: acquisition without contact; access to internal and external dimensional information; a direct input to 3D modelling especially of internal structures. In some cases, dual energy (DE) CT acquisitions can help to obtain information on the material density and the aver
37、age atomic number of certain materials. In the case of known materials the additional information can be traded for improved discrimination or improved characterization. 4.3 Limitations of CT CT is an indirect test procedure and measurements (e.g. of the size of material faults; of wall thicknesses
38、must be compared with another absolute measurement procedure, see EN 16016-3). Another potential drawback of CT imaging is the possible occurrence of artefacts (see 4.5) in the data. Artefacts limit the ability to quantitatively extract information from an image. Therefore, as with any examination t
39、echnique, the user must be able to recognize and discount common artefacts subjectively. Like any imaging system, a CT system can never reproduce an exact image of the scanned object. The accuracy of the CT image is dictated largely by the competing influences of the imaging system, namely spatial r
40、esolution, statistical noise and artefacts. Each of these aspects is discussed briefly in 4.4.1. A more complete description will be found in EN 16016-3. CT grey values cannot be used to identify unknown materials unambiguously unless a priori information is available, since a given experimental val
41、ue measured at a given position may correspond to a broad range of materials. Another important consideration is to have sufficient X-ray transmission through the sample at all projection angles (see 8.2) without saturating any part of the detector. 4.4 Main CT process steps 4.4.1 Acquisition During
42、 a CT scan, multiple projections are taken in a systematic way: the images are acquired from a number of different viewing angles. Feature recognition depends, among other factors, on the number of angles from which the individual projections are taken. The CT image quality can be improved if the nu
43、mber of projections of a scan is increased. As all image capture systems contain inherent artefacts, CT scans usually begin with the capture of offset and gain reference images to allow flat field correction; using black (X-rays off) and white (X-rays on with the sample out of the field of view) ima
44、ges to correct for detector anomalies. The capture of reference images for DIN EN 16016-2:2012-01 EN 16016-2:2011 (E) 7 distortion correction (pin cushion distortion in the case of camera-based detector systems with optical distortion), and centre of rotation correction can also take place at this s
45、tage. Each subsequent captured image for the CT data set has these corrections applied to it. Some systems can be configured to either the X-ray settings or enhance the image to ensure that the background intensity level of the captured images remains constant throughout the duration of the CT scan.
46、 The quality of a CT image depends on a number of system-level performance factors, with one of the most important being spatial resolution. Spatial resolution is generally quantified in terms of the smallest separation at which two features can be distinguished as separate entities. The limits of s
47、patial resolution are determined by the design and construction of the system and by the resolution of and number of CT projections. The resolution of the CT projection is limited by the maximum magnification that can be used while still imaging all parts of the sample at all rotation angles. It is
48、important to notice that the smallest feature that can be detected in a CT image is not the same as the smallest that can be resolved spatially. A feature considerably smaller than a single voxel can affect the voxel to which it corresponds to such an extent that it appears with a visible contrast so that it can b
