Statistical Positron Emission Tomography Image Reconstruction : System Geometric Models and Iterative Algorithms
Quantitative positron emission tomography (PET) using statistical techniques requires: d̂flk..»;„-.IK:. system geometric model that represents the probability of detecting an emission from each impgf. , pixel at each detector-pair, and (b) an iterative algorithm that reconstructs image as quaatitativfi , tt. measurements of radiotracer distribution in vivo. Conventional implementations of iterat...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Image Reconstruction for Positron Emission Tomography
In Positron Emission Tomography, penalized iterative algorithms like MAP often results in over smooth reconstructions due to over penalizing nature of the assumed interacting potential. These algorithms fail to determine the density class of the estimate and hence penalize the pixels irrespective of the density class. In this work, a fuzzy logic based approach is proposed to model the prior whi...
متن کاملFast System Matrix Calculation in CT Iterative Reconstruction
Introduction: Iterative reconstruction techniques provide better image quality and have the potential for reconstructions with lower imaging dose than classical methods in computed tomography (CT). However, the computational speed is major concern for these iterative techniques. The system matrix calculation during the forward- and back projection is one of the most time- cons...
متن کاملSimultaneous Reconstruction in Dynamic Positron Emission Tomography
In this paper we study the problem of reconstructing simultaneously a sequence of images in a dynamic PET study. In our algorithm we will make use of the fact that the morphology does not change by much between adjacent frames. Together with a total variation prior this will be shown to reduce the noise level considerably, without corrupting the individuality of the frames. Simulation results a...
متن کاملGeneralized Gibbs priors based positron emission tomography reconstruction
Bayesian methods have been widely applied to the ill-posed problem of image reconstruction. Typically the prior information of the objective image is needed to produce reasonable reconstructions. In this paper, we propose a novel generalized Gibbs prior (GG-Prior), which exploits the basic affinity structure information in an image. The motivation for using the GG-Prior is that it has been show...
