Scatter reduction for grid-less mammography using the convolution- based image post-processing technique
X-ray Mammography examinations are highly affected by scattered radiation, as it degrades the quality of the image and complicates the diagnosis process. Anti-scatter grids are currently used in planar mammography examinations as the standard physical scattering reduction technique. This method has been found to be inefficient, as it increases the dose delivered to the patient, does not remove ...
متن کاملThe Effect of FEW Scatter Correction Method in In-111 Imaging
Introduction: In nuclear medicine imaging, detection of the scattered photons along with the primary photons is one of the major problems that can lead to a decrease in ddiagnostic accuracy. Therefore, use of a suitable scatter correction method can help to improve of the image quality and increase of diagnostic accuracy. The aim of this study is evaluation of five energy wind...
متن کاملScatter Correction Methods in Dimensional CT
The purpose of this study was to evaluate different approaches for scatter artifact reduction in the field of dimensional computed tomography (CT). The methods we investigated can be subdivided into one software-based method and three hardware-based methods. The software-based method uses a Monte Carlo scatter simulation to estimate scatter intensities for an initial model of the geometrical an...
متن کاملRefinement of Imaging Processing of Scatter Correction and Beam Hardening Tools for Industrial Radiography and Cone Beam CT
Digital detector arrays are used for industrial radiography and cone beam CT. Scattering and beam hardening artifacts reduce the achievable contrast sensitivity and can severely limit the size of the part to be scanned or require large amounts of shielding to block scatter outside the inspection area of interest. Varian’s image processing toolkit contains a set of dll’s that can easily be deplo...
متن کاملSimulation and patient studies of scatter correction in cardiac SPECT imaging
Introduction: Myocardial perfusion imaging is a nuclear medicine imaging method that is used to detect coronary artery diseases. One of the main sources of error in this imaging method is the detection of Compton scattered photons in the photopeak energy window used for data acquisition. This results in the degradation of the image contrast, and therefore decreases the...
