Projector View Synthesis and Virtual Texturing

We propose a technique to project a synthesized texture onto 3D textureless real objects without contact, which can be applied for example, in medical or archaeological applications. Our system uses two cameras and one projector. By projecting a suitable set of light patterns onto the surface of a 3D real object and by capturing images with one or several cameras, a large number of corresponden...

Evaluation of a fast method of EPID-based dosimetry for IMRT and Comparison with 3D EPID-based dosimetry system using conventional two- and three-dimensional detectors for VMAT

Introduction: Electronic portal imaging devices (EPIDs) could potentially be useful for intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) and VMAT QA. The data density, high resolution, large active area, and efficiency of the MV EPID make it an attractive option. However, EPIDs were designed as imaging devices, not dosimeters, and as a result they do not inherently measure dose in ...
