Abstract
An X-ray CT apparatus according to an embodiment includes a buffer and a processing circuitry. The buffer temporarily stores therein data detected by an X-ray detector. The processing circuitry controls transfer of the data in units of a scan, the data being acquired by each scan of a scan plan constituted of a plurality of scans.
Claims24
An X-ray CT apparatus comprising:
- a buffer configured to temporarily store therein data detected by an X-ray detector;
- and
- a processing circuitry configured to
- control transfer of the data in units of a scan, the data being acquired by each scan of a scan plan constituted of a plurality of scans.
1 more element
A data transfer method comprising:
- storing data detected by an X-ray detector in a buffer configured to temporarily store therein the data;
- acquiring information about residual capacity of the buffer before a scan indicated by a scan plan is performed;
- and
- determining a transfer timing of the data from the buffer to a storage circuitry based on the scan plan and the information about the residual capacity of the buffer.
1 more element
A data transfer method comprising:
- storing data detected by an X-ray detector in a buffer configured to temporarily store therein the data;
- and
- specifying a scan by which the data transferred from the buffer is acquired based on a first identifier given to each scan in a scan plan constituted of a plurality of scans.
