How Different Iterative and Filtered Back Projection Kernels Affect Computed Tomography Numbers and Low Contrast Detectability.
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate how different iterative and filtered back projection kernels affect the computed tomography (CT) numbers and low contrast detectability. METHODS Five different scans were performed at 6 different tube potentials on the same Catphan 600 phantom using approximately the same dose level and otherwise identical settings. The scans were reconstructed ...
متن کاملBandlimited and Haar filtered back-projection reconstructions
A new way to discretize the filtered back-projection (FBP) algorithm is presented. The function basis is the Haar system (2D product of rectangular windows). This scheme allows one to derive the optimal shape of the apodisation window, which is angle varying, and the oversampling ratio between the pixel and the projection cell size. The discrete equivalent filter is also derived. The comparison...
متن کاملStandard dose versus low-dose abdominal and pelvic CT: comparison between filtered back projection versus adaptive iterative dose reduction 3D.
PURPOSE To compare the dose and image quality of a standard dose abdominal and pelvic CT with Filtered Back Projection (FBP) to low-dose CT with Adaptive Iterative Dose Reduction 3D (AIDR 3D). MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively examined the images of 21 patients in the portal phase of an abdominal and pelvic CT scan before and after implementation of AIDR 3D iterative reconstruction. Th...
متن کاملReduced-dose low-voltage chest CT angiography with Sinogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction versus standard-dose filtered back projection.
PURPOSE To evaluate image quality of low-voltage chest computed tomographic (CT) angiography with raw data-based iterative reconstruction (sonogram-affirmed iterative reconstruction) in comparison with image quality of standard-dose standard-voltage filtered back projection (FBP) CT. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective study was approved by the institutional review board, and the informed ...
متن کاملComparing IDREAM as an Iterative Reconstruction Algorithm against In Filtered Back Projection in Computed Tomography
Introduction: Recent studies of Computed Tomography (CT) conducted on patient dose reduction have recommended using an iterative reconstruction algorithm and mA (mili-Ampere) dose modulation. The current study aimed to evaluate Iterative Dose Reduction Algorithm (IDREAM) as an iterative reconstruction algorithm. Material and Methods: Two CT p...
