Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

7.9K
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

2.7K
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...

Positron Emission Tomography

6.8K
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Computational Imaging
    • Image Reconstruction

    Background:

    • Energy-resolved computed tomography (ErCT) offers material-specific information but suffers from increased noise compared to conventional energy-integrating CT (EiCT).
    • Higher noise in ErCT leads to significant artifacts and bias in material estimation, limiting its diagnostic potential.
    • Effective noise reduction and artifact suppression are crucial for high-quality ErCT image reconstruction and accurate material decomposition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a novel method for noise suppression and artifact reduction in ErCT image reconstruction.
    • To improve the accuracy of material estimation from ErCT data.
    • To enhance the overall image quality of ErCT by leveraging intrinsic data properties and external information.

    Main Methods:

    • A Full Spectrum-knowledge-aware Tensor analysis and processing (FSTensor) method was developed, treating 2D ErCT images across energy bins as a 3-order tensor.
    • The method incorporates tensor decomposition to capture global correlations and tensor total variation regularization for local piecewise smoothness.
    • External full spectrum image information was utilized to further improve reconstruction performance, solved using an alternating direction method of multipliers algorithm with parameter selection via a genetic algorithm.

    Main Results:

    • The FSTensor method demonstrated significant improvements in suppressing noise-induced artifacts in ErCT images.
    • High-quality ErCT images and accurate material images were obtained, outperforming conventional methods like filtered back-projection and various tensor-based approaches.
    • Successful validation was shown through simulation, preclinical, and synthesized clinical ErCT data.

    Conclusions:

    • The FSTensor method effectively addresses noise and artifacts in ErCT reconstruction.
    • This approach enables high-accuracy material estimation and improved image quality for ErCT applications.
    • The FSTensor method represents a significant advancement in ErCT image processing, enhancing its clinical utility.
