Computed Tomography01:10

Computed Tomography

8.0K
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...

Cluster Sampling Method01:20

Cluster Sampling Method

14.0K
Appropriate sampling methods ensure that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a cluster sample, divide the population into clusters (groups) and then randomly select some of the clusters. All the members from these clusters are in the cluster sample. For example, if you randomly sample four departments from your...

Sampling Methods: Overview

2.3K
A sample refers to a smaller subset representative of a larger population. In analytical chemistry, studying or analyzing an entire population is often impractical or impossible. Therefore, samples are used to draw inferences and generalize the whole population. The sampling method selects individuals or items from a population to create a sample. Standard sampling methods include random, judgemental, systematic, stratified, and cluster sampling. 
In analytical chemistry, the choice of...

Sampling Methods: Sample Types

2.2K
Sampling materials are classified into three main types: solid, liquid, and gas.
Solid samples include a variety of substances, such as sediments from water bodies, soil, metals, and biological tissues. Two standard methods for extracting sediments from water bodies are grab sampling and piston coring. Grab sampling involves using a device to collect a discrete sediment sample from the bottom of a water body with minimal disturbance. Grab samples do not always represent the entire area due to...

Sampling Plans

Sampling is a crucial step in analytical chemistry, allowing researchers to collect representative data from a large population. Common sampling methods include random, judgmental, systematic, stratified, and cluster sampling.
Random sampling is a method where each member of the population has an equal chance of being selected for the sample. It involves selecting individuals randomly, often using random number generators or lottery-type methods. For example, when analyzing the properties of a...

Stratified Sampling Method01:16

Stratified Sampling Method

14.5K
Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a stratified sample, divide the population into groups called strata and then take a...

    • Medical Imaging
    • Radiological Physics

    Background:

    • Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) image quality is often compromised by scatter radiation.

    • Developed a sparse primary sampling (SPS) grid using sparsely inserted collimators.
    • Evaluated the SPS grid using Monte Carlo simulations with various phantoms.
    • Formulated image reconstruction as a constrained optimization problem incorporating sparse primary signals.

    Main Results:

    • The SPS grid and reconstruction method achieved recovery of Hounsfield Unit (HU) values and improved image resolution.
    • Effective performance was demonstrated at sampling densities below 0.1%.

    Conclusions:

    • The hybrid hardware-software SPS method offers flexible sampling with minimal primary signal loss and dose increase.
