X-ray transform and 3D Radon transform for ellipsoids and tetrahedra

چکیده
Accurate simulation of X-ray transforms of representative objects plays an important role in the evaluation and improvement of CT reconstruction algorithms. In this paper, we formulate the X-ray transform and 3D Radon transform for ellipsoids and tetrahedra, and verify the resulting formulas by numerical simulation. Here the ellipsoids and tetrahedra may be arbitrarily positioned and rotated. Linearity of the first derivative of radon transform is observed. Our results serve as a benchmark for development of various cone-beam algorithms that work through the Radon space, such as Grangeat-type algorithms.

The X-ray Transform and its Application in Nano Crystallography
In this article a review on the definition of the X- ray transform and some ofits applications in Nano crystallography is presented. We shall show that the X- raytransform is a special case of the Radon transform on homogeneous spaces when thetopological group E(n)- the Euclidean group - acts on ℝ2 transitively. First someproperties of the Radon transform are investigated then the relationship ...

Combined use of the X-ray (Radon) transform and the wavelet transform has proved to be useful in application areas such as diagnostic medicine and seismology. In the present paper, the wavelet X-ray transform is introduced. This transform performs one-dimensional wavelet transforms along lines in R n , which are param-eterized in the same fashion as for the X-ray transform. It is shown that the...

متن کاملAdmissible Complexes for the Projective X-ray Transform over a Finite Field
We consider the X-ray transform in a projective space over a finite field. It is well known (after E. Bolker) that this transform is injective. We formulate an analog of I.M. Gelfand’s admissibility problem for the Radon transform, which asks for a classification of all minimal sets of lines for which the restricted Radon transform is injective. The solution involves doubly ruled quadric surfaces.
متن کاملDetection of Blood Vessels in Color Fundus Images using a Local Radon Transform
Introduction: This paper addresses a method for automatic detection of blood vessels in color fundus images which utilizes two main tools: image partitioning and local Radon transform. Material and Methods: The input images are firstly divided into overlapping windows and then the Radon transform is applied to each. The maximum of the Radon transform in each window corresponds to the probable a...
