Projection Selection Algorithms for Discrete Tomography
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we study how the choice of projection angles affect the quality of the discrete tomographic reconstruction of an object. We supply four different strategies for selecting projection angle sets and compare them by conducting experiments on a set of software phantoms. We also discuss some consequences of our observations. Furthermore, we introduce a possible application of the proposed angle selection algorithms as well.

Projection Selection Dependency in Binary Tomography
It has already been shown that the choice of projection angles can significantly influence the quality of reconstructions in discrete tomography. In this contribution we summarize and extend the previous results by explaining and demonstrating the effects of projection selection dependency, in a set of experimental software tests. We perform reconstructions of software phantoms, by using differ...
متن کاملUtilization 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...
متن کاملArtifact reduction techniques in Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) imaging modality
Introduction: Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) was introduced and became more common based on its low cost, fast image procedure rate and low radiation dose compared to CT. This imaging modality improved diagnostic and treatment-planning procedures by providing three-dimensional information with greatly reduced level of radiation dose compared to 2D dental imaging modalitie...
متن کاملDirection-dependency of binary tomographic reconstruction algorithms
In this work we study the relation between the quality of a binary tomographic reconstruction and the choice of angles of the projections. We conduct experiments on a set of software phantoms by reconstructing them from different projection sets using three different discrete tomography reconstruction algorithms, and compare the accuracy of the corresponding reconstructions with suitable approa...
متن کاملAligning Projection Images from Binary Volumes
In tomography, slight differences between the geometry of the scanner hardware and the geometric model used in the reconstruction lead to alignment artifacts. To exploit high-resolution detectors used in many applications of tomography, alignment of the projection data is essential. Markerless alignment algorithms are the preferred choice over alignment with markers, in case a fully automatic t...
