Patent ID: 8761483

Claim:
An X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) device, comprising: an X-ray tube that radiates an X-ray; a collimator that limits an irradiation area of the X-ray; at least one detection module that has a plurality of detectors configured to detect the X-ray; a grid that is disposed in the plurality of detectors and removes scattered rays from a subject when the X-ray is radiated on the subject, wherein a one-dimensional grid that removes scattered rays in a direction perpendicular to a slice direction is used as the grid; and a storage unit; a pre-processing unit configured to prepare a sensitivity correction data based on an output of the plurality of detectors; an image reconstruction processing unit configured to correct the output of the plurality of detectors by using the sensitivity correction data and reconstructs an image of the subject based on the corrected output; and an image display unit configured to display the image reconstructed by the image reconstruction processing unit, wherein the pre-processing unit comprises: a unit configured to acquire an X-ray incidence rate of each detection module at each focal spot position by changing the focal spot position that is a position of the X-ray tube under a condition that the subject is absent; a unit configured to acquire a relationship between a reference signal and the acquired X-ray incidence rate of each detection module under the condition that the subject is absent; a unit configured to store acquired relationship in the storage unit; a unit configured to calculate the X-ray incidence rate of each detection module during scanning of the subject by using the reference signal during the scanning of the subject and the stored relationship when the subject is scanned; and a unit configured to acquire the sensitivity correction data of each focal spot position by using the calculated X-ray incidence rate during the scanning of the subject wherein when a scanning of the subject by a plural slice scan mode is performed, the sensitivity correction data of the each focal spot position is acquired in an edge slice.
