Real‐time, ray casting‐based scatter dose estimation for c‐arm x‐ray system
OBJECTIVES Dosimetric control of staff exposure during interventional procedures under fluoroscopy is of high relevance. In this paper, a novel ray casting approximation of radiation transport is presented and the potential and limitation vs. a full Monte Carlo transport and dose measurements are discussed. METHOD The x-ray source of a Siemens Axiom Artix C-arm is modeled by a virtual source ...
متن کاملGPU-based real time FRep ray casting
A new method is presented for rendering general FRep (functionally represented) models using GPU-accelerated ray casting. We use the GPU acceleration for all computations in the rendering algorithm: ray-surface intersection calculation, function evaluation, and normal vector computation. Performing geometric intersection calculations in parallel with shading allows us to combine the whole proce...
متن کاملFeature-based depth estimation for monoplane X-ray imaging with limited C-arm motion
During interventional procedures, surgical guidance is provided through live X-ray imaging. Depth cues from 2D imaging can enhance the insight to the true position of important structures. In this paper, we examine a novel application where a small motion of the Carm is used to create disparity between views for defining a sparse depth map of generic interest points. Feature points are detected...
متن کاملMultimodal x-ray scatter imaging
We describe a small-angle x-ray scattering-based imaging technique that reveals the distribution and orientation of nano-scale structures over extended areas. By combining two measurement and analysis schemes, complementary structural information is available which renders the technique suitable for a broad range of applications, e.g. in materials science and bioimaging. Through a combination o...
متن کاملCoded apertures for x-ray scatter imaging.
We examine coding strategies for coded aperture scatter imagers. Scatter imaging enables tomography of compact regions from snapshot measurements. We present coded aperture designs for pencil and fan beam geometries, and compare their singular value spectra with that of the Radon transform and selected volume tomography. We show that under dose constraints scatter imaging improves conditioning ...
