Aldermaston UK Richard Watson Senior Engineer NDE British Crown 2007/MOD Page 1 of 24
2 High Energy Digital Radiography Introduction CT imaging High Energy definition / Facilities Digital Detectors Test objects, alignment, shielding Position and motion control Experiments, collimation, filters Data handling Results Summary British Crown 2007/MOD Page 2 of 24
3 CT Imaging An enormous amount of useful data is lost in the process of projecting 3D Data onto a 2D image plane. Additionally, overlaying parts within complex assemblies can make radiographic film interpretation difficult, a CT slice enables a different view of the data for analysis Conventional Film Radiograph CT slice Image British Crown 2007/MOD Page 3 of 24
4 CT Imaging Fan Beam System X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) provides the 3rd dimensional view. AWE currently has a number of CT systems. 2D array CT Systems British Crown 2007/MOD Page 4 of 24
5 High Energy Digital Radiography High Energy Definition: > 1MeV In the medical imaging sector, next generation scintillator materials, Am- Si flat panel imaging sensors together with major advances in CCD technology promise high fidelity, high resolution digital images at lower X-ray dose to patients. The same technology is being developed for industrial applications. Most industrial systems are designed to work at significantly lower energies typically KeV with a maximum up to 300KeV Our systems use much higher energies typically 4 10 MeV British Crown 2007/MOD Page 5 of 24
6 High Energy Digital Radiography Facilities at AWE 2 Facilities have been used during development. 4.2 MeV Linac - NDE Development use 2 10 MeV Minac NDE Development use Some limited work has been done with Computed Radiography systems at high energy X-Ray set 4MeV to 10MeV Detector Collection of image data Object British Crown 2007/MOD Page 6 of 24

22 Image Processing & CT Acquisition PC advances in recent times have enables much larger data sets to be processed within a reasonable time. We currently use a 64bit PC with 16GB RAM, 2 x dual core CPUs, which can reconstruct a 1k cube in < 10 minute Multi-rotation enables objects to be scanned which are larger than the detector width. Image stitching when scanning large objects Measurements with 3D volumetric data VGS & Haptics British Crown 2007/MOD Page 22 of 24
23 Future Work We are doing further experiments to help characterise our systems and to further improve the resolution. We are investigating Neural networking as a means of helping to identify features within a radiograph Explore the use of Monte Carlo N Particle (MCNP) methods to improve the results Extend the range of test components and materials used to validate the systems Looking at other acquisition systems, interested in CR (computed radiography) & LDA (Linear Diode Array) for high energy work. Haptics Tactile tool to interact with and analyse & use as a measurement tool. British Crown 2007/MOD Page 23 of 24
