Hybrid filters for medical image reconstruction
The most significant feature of diagnostic medical images is to reduce Gaussian noise, and salt and pepper noise which is commonly found in medical images and make better image quality. In recent years, technological development has significantly improved analyzing medical imaging. This paper proposes different hybrid filtering techniques for the removal of Gaussian noise, and salt and pepper n...
متن کاملApplication of computational breast phantoms to evaluate reconstruction methods for fluorescence molecular tomography
Fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) has potential of providing high contrast images for breast tumor detection. Computational phantom provides a convenient way to a wide variety of fluorophore distribution configurations in patients and perform comprehensive evaluation of the imaging systems and methods for FMT. In this study, a digital breast phantom was used to compare the performance of ...
متن کاملIndividual virtual phantom reconstruction for organ dosimetry based on standard available phantoms
Background: In nuclear medicine application often it is required to use computational methods for evaluation of organ absorbed dose. Monte Carlo simulation and phantoms have been used in many works before. The shape, size and volume in organs are varied, and this variation will produce error in dose calculation if no correction is applied. Materials and Methods: A computational framewo...
متن کاملThe UF family of reference hybrid phantoms for computational radiation dosimetry.
Computational human phantoms are computer models used to obtain dose distributions within the human body exposed to internal or external radiation sources. In addition, they are increasingly used to develop detector efficiencies for in vivo whole-body counters. Two classes of computational human phantoms have been widely utilized for dosimetry calculation: stylized and voxel phantoms that descr...
متن کاملRadiation dose reduction with hybrid iterative reconstruction for pediatric CT.
PURPOSE To assess image quality and radiation dose reduction with hybrid iterative reconstruction of pediatric chest and abdominal computed tomographic (CT) data compared with conventional filtered back projection (FBP). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 234 patients (median age, 12 years; age range, 6 weeks to 18 years) underwent chest and abdominal CT in this institutional review board-appro...
