Fischer Projections02:18

Fischer Projections

12.8K
Learning to draw Fischer projections of molecules and understanding their relevance plays a crucial role in the visual depiction of organic molecules. A Fischer projection is a two-dimensional projection on a planar surface to simplify the three-dimensional wedge–dash representation of molecules. This is especially helpful in the case of molecules with multiple chiral centers that can be difficult to draw. Here, all the bonds of interest are represented as horizontal or vertical lines.

Reconstruction of Signal using Interpolation

915
Signal processing techniques are essential for accurately converting continuous signals to digital formats and vice versa. When a continuous signal is sampled with a period T, the resulting sampled signal exhibits replicas of the original spectrum in the frequency domain, spaced at intervals equal to the sampling frequency. To handle this sampled signal, a zero-order hold method can be applied, which creates a piecewise constant signal by retaining each sample's value until the next...

Newman Projections

Different notations are used to represent the three-dimensional structure of molecules on two-dimensional surfaces. One of the most commonly used representations is the dash-wedge formula. The dashed wedges, solid wedges, and the plane lines indicate the groups situated behind the plane, coming out of the plane, and in the plane, respectively.
The organic molecules rotate across the single bonds leading to numerous temporary three-dimensional structures of varying energy known as...

Curvilinear Motion: Rectangular Components

1.6K
Curvilinear motion characterizes the movement of a particle or object along a curved path, notably evident when envisioning a car navigating a winding road. If the car starts at point A, its position vector is established within a fixed frame of reference, where the ratio of the position vector to its magnitude signifies the unit vector pointing in the position vector's direction.
As the car advances, its position evolves over time. Quantifying the car's velocity involves computing the...

Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

7.6K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Nuclear Medicine
  • Image Reconstruction

Background:

  • Dynamic Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging often faces challenges with low photon counts and noise in short acquisition frames.
  • Reconstructing these frames accurately is crucial for quantitative analysis but can lead to significant bias and noise issues.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce and evaluate a new data handling method, Complementary Frame Reconstruction (CFR), for improving image quality in low-count dynamic PET acquisitions.
  • To reduce image noise and bias in the reconstruction of very short frames.

Main Methods:

  • The Complementary Frame Reconstruction (CFR) method indirectly forms a count-limited emission image by subtracting two longer acquisition frames, excluding short-frame data from the second.
  • This approach stabilizes reconstruction using longer scan data and avoids modifying existing algorithms like Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization (MLEM).
  • Negative voxel values are naturally allowed during subtraction, significantly reducing introduced bias.

Main Results:

  • Simulations using phantom and clinical data demonstrated CFR's accuracy in representing true activity distribution.
  • The method effectively reduces bias and noise in reconstructed images from low-count dynamic PET data.
  • Applicability was explored for determining arterial input functions in human and small animal studies.

Conclusions:

  • Complementary Frame Reconstruction (CFR) offers a valuable alternative to existing methods for improving dynamic PET image reconstruction, particularly in low-count scenarios.
  • The method is well-suited for applications requiring high accuracy, such as pediatric imaging, gated cardiac/abdominal studies, and investigations using short-lived isotopes like Oxygen-15-water.
