Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

7.3K
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:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Medical Imaging
    • Electrical Engineering

    Background:

    • Traditional electrical parameters do not directly correlate with the image quality of Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) systems.
    • Objective image quality assessment is crucial for reliable EIT system evaluation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a universal and reproducible method for evaluating EIT system performance using reconstructed images.
    • To introduce new full reference (FR) metrics for objective EIT image quality assessment.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilized objective full reference (FR) image quality assessment based on reconstructed EIT images.
    • Developed a visually distinguishable hot colormap and two new FR metrics: global and 'region of interest'.
    • Evaluated the method using a passive 16-electrode EIT system with an integrated circuit front-end.

    Main Results:

    • Demonstrated the impact of design parameters and non-idealities on EIT images using visual and proposed FR metrics.
    • Compared passive and active electrode EIT systems, highlighting the advantages of active systems in reducing noise interference.
    • Proposed a figure of merit derived from the FR metrics for comprehensive EIT system evaluation.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed method offers a reliable approach for universal EIT system performance evaluation.
    • The new FR metrics and visual tools provide objective and quantifiable measures of EIT image quality.
    • Active electrode systems show superior performance in mitigating noise interference compared to passive systems.
