Zusammenfassung:Techniques are provided for facilitating vacuum health detection for imaging systems and methods. In one example, an imaging device includes a detector configured to generate a first reference signal. The imaging apparatus further includes a buffer circuit configured to store a value of the first reference signal. The imaging device also includes processing circuitry coupled to the buffer circuitry. The processing circuit is configured to determine a first predetermined value based on a first temperature associated with the detector. The processing circuitry is further configured to determine a vacuum integrity associated with the detector based at least on the value of the first reference signal and the first predetermined value. Related methods and systems are also provided. 提供了用于促进成像系统和方法的真空健康检测的技术。在一个示例中,成像设备包括被配置为生成第一参考信号的检测器。成像设备还包括被配置为存储第一参考信号的值的缓冲电路。成像设备还包括联接到缓冲电路的处理电路。处理电路被配置为基于与检测器关联的第一温度来确定第一预定值。处理电路还被配置为至少基于第一参考信号的值和第一预定值来确定与检测器关联的真空完整性。还提供了相关的方法和系统。
