An iterative method to estimate x-ray attenuation coefficients in computed tomography
Introduction: The basis of image formation in Computed Tomography (CT) lies in the x-ray linear attenuation coefficient of the scanned material. Compton scattering and photoelectric effect are the dominant interactions of the x-ray photons with the subject, in the range of diagnostic radiology. These two coefficients are important in tissue characterization by Dual-Energy CT (D...
متن کاملX-ray computed tomography.
X-ray computed tomography (CT), introduced into clinical practice in 1972, was the first of the modern slice-imaging modalities. To reconstruct images mathematically from measured data and to display and to archive them in digital form was a novelty then and is commonplace today. CT has shown a steady upward trend with respect to technology, performance and clinical use independent of predictio...
متن کاملX-ray micro-computed tomography
Micro-computed tomography (μCT) has been successfully used to study the cardiovascular system of mouse embryos in situ. With the use of barium as a suitablecontrast agent, blood vessels have beenimaged and analysed quantitatively such asblood volume and vessel sizes on embryosof ages 14.5 to 16.5 days old. The advantageof using this imaging modality is that it hasprovide...
متن کاملX-ray Computed Tomography for Medical Imaging
Themathematical principles of computed tomography (CT) were first investigated by J. Radon [28] as early as 1917 and were later extended to complex fields by Kirillov [22]. The first application of tomography was, surprisingly, in radio astronomy [2], and today, it finds usage in diverse fields such as medical imaging, seismology, and underwater acoustic imaging. In medical imaging, CT has had ...
متن کاملAdaptive zooming in X-ray computed tomography.
BACKGROUND In computed tomography (CT), the source-detector system commonly rotates around the object in a circular trajectory. Such a trajectory does not allow to exploit a detector fully when scanning elongated objects. OBJECTIVE Increase the spatial resolution of the reconstructed image by optimal zooming during scanning. METHODS A new approach is proposed, in which the full width of the...
