Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

Electron Microscope Tomography and Single-particle Reconstruction

Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) can be used to determine the 3D structure of biological samples with the help of techniques such as electron microscope tomography and single-particle reconstruction. While single-particle reconstruction can examine macromolecules and macromolecular complexes in vitro conditions only, tomography permits the study of cell components or small cells in vivo.

Electron tomography can be performed either in TEM or STEM (scanning transmission...

Imaging Studies III: Computed Tomography

DefinitionComputed Tomography (CT) of the genitourinary (GU) tract is a non-invasive imaging modality that utilizes X-rays and computer processing to generate detailed cross-sectional images of the urinary system, encompassing the kidneys, ureters, bladder, and adjacent structures such as the adrenal glands.PurposeCT scans of the GU tract serve several diagnostic and therapeutic purposes, including:Diagnosis of Urinary Tract Diseases: Detects kidney stones, tumors, cysts, and congenital...

Area of Science:

  • Tomography
  • Image Reconstruction
  • Computational Imaging

Background:

  • Discrete tomography reconstructs objects from limited projection data.
  • Conventional methods struggle with sparse or noisy datasets.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel iterative reconstruction algorithm, discrete algebraic reconstruction technique (DART).
  • To leverage prior knowledge of object compositions and their corresponding gray values.
  • To improve reconstruction accuracy and robustness in discrete tomography.

Main Methods:

  • Developed an iterative reconstruction algorithm named DART.
  • DART utilizes prior knowledge of gray values for known compositions.
  • Algorithm steers reconstruction towards solutions containing only specified gray values.

Main Results:

  • DART achieved higher accuracy than alternative methods with limited projection images or angular range.
