Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Fluorescent X-ray CT (FXCT) can be a high-resolution molecular imaging, since it can detect a very small amount of imaging agent, such as iodine, with high resolution of a few hundreds of micrometers. Presently, it takes about 60 minutes to in vivo image a rat’s head with a spatial resolution of 0.5 mm because of use of a data-acquisition scheme by a thin beam, which is the same as that of the first generation of CT. Therefore, iodine quantity in the brain decreases due to metabolism by approximately 10 to 20% during the measurements, leading to a deterioration of quantitative estimation. In this study, based on a phenomenological mode proposed, we devise a correction method for the temporal attenuation of iodine concentration in in-vivo FXCT imaging, and demonstrate its efficacy using simulation data.
