An Adaptive Backpropagation Algorithm for Limited-Angle CT Image Reconstruction
نویسندگان
چکیده
Presented in this paper is a neural back propagation algorithm for reconstructing two-dimensional CT images from a small number of projection data. The paper extends the work in [1], in which a backpropagation algorithm is applied to the CT image reconstruction problem. The delta rule of the ordinary backpropagation algorithm is modified using a ‘secondary’ teaching signal and the ‘Resilient backpropagation’ scheme. Results obtained are presented along with those of two well known conventional methods: MART and EMML method. A quantitative evaluation reveals the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. key words: backpropagation, CT image, EMML, MART, rprop

Block-Based Compressive Sensing Using Soft Thresholding of Adaptive Transform Coefficients
Compressive sampling (CS) is a new technique for simultaneous sampling and compression of signals in which the sampling rate can be very small under certain conditions. Due to the limited number of samples, image reconstruction based on CS samples is a challenging task. Most of the existing CS image reconstruction methods have a high computational complexity as they are applied on the entire im...
متن کاملComparing IDREAM as an Iterative Reconstruction Algorithm against In Filtered Back Projection in Computed Tomography
Introduction: Recent studies of Computed Tomography (CT) conducted on patient dose reduction have recommended using an iterative reconstruction algorithm and mA (mili-Ampere) dose modulation. The current study aimed to evaluate Iterative Dose Reduction Algorithm (IDREAM) as an iterative reconstruction algorithm. Material and Methods: Two CT p...
متن کاملLearning Splines for Sparse Tomographic Reconstruction
In a few-view or limited-angle computed tomography (CT), where the number of measurements is far fewer than image unknowns, the reconstruction task is an ill-posed problem. We present a spline-based sparse tomographic reconstruction algorithm where content-adaptive patch sparsity is integrated into the reconstruction process. The proposed method leverages closed-form Radon transforms of tensor-...
متن کاملAccurate image reconstruction from few-views and limited-angle data in divergent-beam CT
Abstract In practical applications of tomographic imaging, there are often challenges for image reconstruction due to under-sampling and insufficient data. In computed tomography (CT), for example, image reconstruction from few views would enable rapid scanning with a reduced x-ray dose delivered to the patient. Limited-angle problems are also of practical significance in CT. In this work, we d...
متن کاملFast System Matrix Calculation in CT Iterative Reconstruction
Introduction: Iterative reconstruction techniques provide better image quality and have the potential for reconstructions with lower imaging dose than classical methods in computed tomography (CT). However, the computational speed is major concern for these iterative techniques. The system matrix calculation during the forward- and back projection is one of the most time- cons...
