Implementation of a channelized Hotelling observer model to assess image quality of x-ray angiography systems.
Evaluation of flat-panel angiography equipment through conventional image quality metrics is limited by the scope of standard spatial-domain image quality metric(s), such as contrast-to-noise ratio and spatial resolution, or by restricted access to appropriate data to calculate Fourier domain measurements, such as modulation transfer function, noise power spectrum, and detective quantum efficie...
متن کاملChannelized Hotelling Observer Performance for Penalized-Likelihood Image Reconstruction
What type of regularization method is optimal for penalized-likelihood image reconstruction when the imaging task is signal detection based on a channelized Hotelling (CHO) observer? To answer such questions, one would like to have a simple analytical expression (even if approximate) for the performance (SNR) of the CHO observer given different reconstruction methods. Bonetto, Qi, and Leahy (IE...
متن کاملComparison of photoacoustic image reconstruction algorithms using the channelized Hotelling observer.
We demonstrate the use of task-based image-quality metrics to compare various photoacoustic image-reconstruction algorithms, including a method based on the pseudoinverse of the system matrix, simple backprojection, filtered backprojection, and a method based on the Fourier transform. We use a three-dimensional forward model with a linear transducer array to simulate a photoacoustic imaging sys...
متن کاملAssessment the effect of CT localizer parameter on radiation dose and image quality of GE CT spiral images, A phantom study
Introduction: Using computed tomography (CT) is increasing significantly in Iran and worldwide. Reduction of CT's radiation dose is a critical concern. The aim of this study was evaluating the effect of localizer kVp on spiral CT images when the tube current modulation (TCM) is activated. Materials and Methods: A special wedding cake phantom with circular in...
متن کاملCovariance approximation for fast and accurate computation of channelized Hotelling observer statistics
We describe a method for computing linear observer statistics for maximum a posteriori (MAP) reconstructions of PET images. The method is based on a theoretical approximation for the mean and covariance of MAP reconstructions. In particular, we derive here a closed form for the channelized Hotelling observer (CHO) statistic applied to 2D MAP images. We show reasonably good correspondence betwee...
