چکیده

Our aim was to estimate the volumes of homogeneous structures whose contrast / intensity was changing with time, using only few (here 4) projections of the structures. Each projection was recorded over a period of time and consisted of a sequence of images. The projections of the structures were first separated by factor analysis of the total projections. Then each structure was reconstructed individually from its factor projections using discrete tomography. Assumed application is the single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).

Utilization of an optimum low-pass filter during filtered back-projection in the reconstruction of single photon emission computed tomography images of small structures

Introduction:Low-pass filters eliminate noise, and accordingly improve the quality of filtered back-projection (FBP) in the reconstruction of single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images. This study aimed at selection of an optimum low-pass filter for FBP reconstruction of SPECT images of small structures. Material and Methods:Sp...

DISCRETE TOMOGRAPHY AND FUZZY INTEGER PROGRAMMING

We study the problem of reconstructing binary images from four projections data in a fuzzy environment. Given the uncertainly projections,w e want to find a binary image that respects as best as possible these projections. We provide an iterative algorithm based on fuzzy integer programming and linear membership functions.

3-D computed tomography reconstruction: another tool to teach anatomy in the veterinary colleges

This letter underpins the use of three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) reconstruction as an aid to teach veterinary anatomy. Cases were presented to students in order to observe normal and clinically abnormal patients. The images provided excellent details of relevant structures and could serve as a tool for teaching anatomy. Many sources describe different options to enhance anatomical...

Prostate Implant Reconstruction with Discrete Tomography

We developed a discrete tomography method for prostate implant reconstructions using only a limited number of X-ray projection images. A 3D voxel volume is reconstructed by back-projection and using distance maps generated from the projection images. The true seed locations are extracted from the voxel volume while false positive seeds are eliminated using a novel optimal geometry coverage mode...

A Neural Network Approach to Real-Time Discrete Tomography

Tomography deals with the reconstruction of the density distribution inside an unknown object from its projections in several directions. In Discrete tomography one focuses on the reconstruction of objects having a small, discrete set of density values. Using this prior knowledge in the reconstruction algorithm may vastly reduce the number of projections that is required to obtain high quality ...
