Filtering in SPECT Image Reconstruction
Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging is widely implemented in nuclear medicine as its clinical role in the diagnosis and management of several diseases is, many times, very helpful (e.g., myocardium perfusion imaging). The quality of SPECT images are degraded by several factors such as noise because of the limited number of counts, attenuation, or scatter of photons. Image...
متن کاملAn Elliptical Orbit Backprojection Filtering Algorithm for Spect
An orbit geometry where the central projection ray of the detector is not constrained to pass through the center-of-rotation for all projection angles can be useful to reduce uniformity artifacts and to avoid truncation when imaging non centrally located organs. We present a backprojection filtering algorithm for parallel geometry with an elliptical orbit acquisition and verify the algorithm by...
متن کاملCoALA-SPECT: a coded aperture laboratory animal SPECT system for pre clinical imaging
We have previously demonstrated the potential of multi-pinhole coded apertures when used in conjunction with compact pixelated detectors for high resolution, high sensitivity small animal SPECT. We are now constructing a prototype SPECT system with three such detectors mounted on a rotating gantry. Each detector comprises a 12 cm diameter circular array of NaI(Tl) crystals, each 1x1x5 mm3 on a ...
متن کاملPre-filtering 2D Polygons without Clipping
In this paper, an improved algorithm for pre-filtering 2D polygons is presented. The part of the polygon within the mask of a filter is decomposed into basic component regions whose parameters can be easily computed. Given the parameters, the integral of the filter over the basic component region can be looked up from a table or even be computed with a closed-form solution. The integral or its ...
متن کاملEfficient Pre-segmentation Filtering In MRCP
Magnetic Resonance Cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is an evolving MRI technique designed for the imaging of the biliary tree, a system of narrow ducts that collect bile, produced within the liver, store it in the gall bladder, and deliver it into the small intestine as needed. Current MRCP protocols, used to diagnose problems in this ductal system, generate cluttered and noisy, low resolution, ...
