Domain shift is one of the most salient challenges in medical computer vision. Due to immense variability scanners’ parameters and imaging protocols, even images obtained from same person scanner could differ significantly. We address computed tomography (CT) caused by different convolution kernels used reconstruction process, critical domain factor CT. The choice a kernel affects pixels’ granu...

In image-guided lung intervention, the electromagnetic (EM) tracked needle can be visualized in a pre-procedural CT by registering the EM tracking and the CT coordinate systems. However, there exist discrepancies between the static pre-procedural CT and the patient due to respiratory motion. This paper proposes an online 4-D CT estimation approach to patient-specific respiratory motion compensa...

in 2001, s. bulman-fleming et al. initiated the study of three flatness properties (weakly kernel flat, principally weakly kernel flat, translation kernel flat) of right acts $a_{s}$ over a monoid $s$ that can be described by means of when the functor $a_{s} otimes -$ preserves pullbacks. in this paper, we extend these results to$s$-posets and present equivalent descriptions of weakly kernel po...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate how different iterative and filtered back projection kernels affect the computed tomography (CT) numbers and low contrast detectability. METHODS Five different scans were performed at 6 different tube potentials on the same Catphan 600 phantom using approximately the same dose level and otherwise identical settings. The scans were reconstructed ...

Purpose: Children are sometimes examined with Computed Tomography protocols designed for adults, leading to radiation doses higher than necessary. Lack of optimisation could lead image quality what is needed diagnostic purposes associated high patients. Optimising the paediatric head trauma CT imaging will reduce dose. Objective: The study aimed optimise dose and assess a set by evaluating nois...

background and aims. the imaging techniques commonly used for foreign body detection include plain radiography, xeroradiography, computed tomography (ct) scans, magnetic resonance imaging (mri) and ultrasonography. the aim of the present study was to compare cone-beam computed tomography (cbct) with conventional ct scan in determination of the exact location of a foreign body in the maxillofaci...
