introduction: in single photon emission computed tomography (spect), the projection data used for image reconstruction are distorted by several factors, including attenuation and scattering of gamma rays, collimator structure, data acquisition method, organ motion, and washout of radiopharmaceuticals. all these make reconstruction of a quantitative spect image very difficult. simulation of a sp...

introduction: radiation imaging is one of the applicable methods in diagnostic medicine and nondestructive testing for industrial applications. in nondestructive 3d imaging, in addition to the radiation source, there is a requirement for a suitable detection system, data acquisition system, mechanical sections for moving objects, reconstruction algorithm and finally a computer for processing an...

agent technology is an emerging and promising research area in software technology, which increasingly contributes to the development of value-added information systems for large healthcare organizations due to its capability to automatically modify themselves in response to changes in their operating environment. multi agent system (mas) approach is the construction of a complex system as a se...

pulse echo b - scan imaging systems have been used for years in medical diagnosis. the theroy of such systems have been investigated by several researchers. in this paper, we introduce a new model for b - scan imaging system based on gaussian type transducer. an imaging system is normally identified by its point response function. this function describes the image of a single physical point obj...
