Abstract:
Cone beam computer tomography (CBCT) has advantages of high precision, low radiation and high image quality. It has been developing quickly since it was applied clinically. In order to control X-ray TUBE HEAD effectively in Dental CBCT, X-ray TUBE HEAD Control System was designed and realized in this study. This control system is the core of CBTC system, which includes the communication between CBCT system and computer, the control of X-ray tube head by CBCT system main control board and the synchronization between main control board and the flat panel detector. Control circuit of the control system and corresponding operating software were designed with PIC16F877A as the core. This control system has been put into use in current CBCT system successfully.
