Radiological imaging apparatus

Abstract

The image pickup apparatus of the radiological imaging apparatus of the present invention includes many detector units, a ring-shaped detector support member and an X-ray source circumferential transport apparatus. Each of the detector units is attached to the detector support section in a detachable manner. A plurality of radiation detectors provided for the detector units are arranged in three layers in the radius direction of the detector support member and in three columns in the axial direction of the detector support member. Since the radiation detectors are arranged in three layers in the radius direction, it is possible to recognize the detection position of radiation in the radius direction in detail. Furthermore, since the detector units are attached in a detachable manner, it is easy to replace damaged radiation detectors.

1 . A radiological imaging apparatus comprising: 
 a detector support member which extends in the longitudinal direction of a bed for supporting an examinee and is arranged around said bed; and    a radiation detection apparatus including a plurality of radiation detector units arranged in the longitudinal direction of said bed and around said bed, said plurality of detector units being attached to said detector support member in a detachable manner,    wherein said detector unit comprises a plurality of radiation detectors for detecting radiation and is provided with some of said radiation detectors for detecting said radiation that has passed through other said radiation detectors.
