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

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...

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...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) images suffer from temporal artefacts when dynamic processes are not considered. New methods improve EIT image quality by accounting for temporal effects in reconstruction algorithms.

Area of Science:

  • Medical imaging
  • Biomedical engineering
  • Electrical engineering

Background:

  • Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) offers high temporal resolution for imaging internal conductivity.
  • Current EIT reconstruction algorithms often neglect temporal correlations between frames, leading to artefacts.
  • Existing methods for temporal compensation lack systematic evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a framework for assessing the impact of temporal effects on EIT images.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of different reconstruction algorithms in mitigating temporal artefacts.
  • To quantify the severity of temporal artefacts in EIT imaging.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a temporal comparison framework with figures of merit.
  • Compared three EIT reconstruction algorithms using perfect, realistic, and interpolated data frames.
  • Analyzed artefacts in dynamic conductivity contrasts at various frequencies relative to the frame rate.

Main Results:

  • Temporal artefacts were observed in EIT images for dynamic conductivity contrasts at frequencies 10-20 times slower than the frame rate when temporal effects were ignored.
  • The proposed methods demonstrated improvements in reducing these artefacts.
  • The severity of artefacts depends on the data frame type and reconstruction algorithm.

Conclusions:

  • Accounting for temporal effects is crucial for accurate EIT imaging of dynamic physiological processes.
  • The developed framework provides a systematic approach to evaluate and improve EIT reconstruction algorithms.
  • Further research is needed to optimize temporal compensation strategies for EIT.
