Computed Tomography

9.7K
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

3.1K
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.

  • Computational Imaging
  • Diagnostic Technology

Background:

  • Developing countries require affordable and low-radiation dose computed tomography (CT) scanners.
  • Parallel translational computed tomography (PTCT) offers a potential solution by eliminating slip-rings.
  • PTCT involves opposite translation of the source and detector relative to the object.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an analytic filtered-backprojection (FBP)-type reconstruction algorithm for 2D fan-beam PTCT.
  • To extend the algorithm to 3D cone-beam geometry using a Feldkamp-type framework.
  • To address data redundancy and eliminate artifacts in PTCT imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an analytic FBP reconstruction algorithm for 2D fan-beam PTCT.
  • Extension to 3D cone-beam PTCT within a Feldkamp framework.
  • Construction of a weighting function to manage data redundancy from multiple translations.

Main Results:

  • The proposed analytic reconstruction algorithms were developed for 2D and 3D PTCT.
