Quantitative Computed Tomography
Computed Tomography (CT) is a wide-spread medical imaging modality. Traditional CT yields information on a patient’s anatomy in form of slice images or volume data. Hounsfield Units (HU) are used to quantify the imaged tissue properties. Due to the polychromatic nature of X-rays in CT, the HU values for a specific tissue depend on its density and composition but also on CT system parameters and...
متن کامل3D ROI Image Reconstruction from Truncated Computed Tomography
This paper introduces a novel method for accurate region-of-interest (ROI) reconstruction from 3D computed tomography (CT), consisting of a wavelet-based regularized iterative reconstruction procedure which is guaranteed to converge to an exact or highly accurate solution within the ROI. ROI tomography is motivated by the goal to reduce the overall radiation exposure when primarily the reconstr...
متن کاملFull 3d Roi Image Reconstruction from Highly Collimated Computed Tomography
We introduce a novel method for full 3D Region Of Interest (ROI) reconstruction in computed tomography (CT), called Searchlight CT, which reduces the overall radiation exposure when primarily the reconstruction of a specified ROI is required. To achieve this goal, the Searchlight CT approach restricts the acquisition essentially to X-rays passing through the ROI, yet the algorithm provides a st...
متن کاملPrediction of Human Vertebral Compressive Strength Using Quantitative Computed Tomography Based Nonlinear Finite Element Method
Introduction: Because of the importance of vertebral compressive fracture (VCF) role in increasing the patients’ death rate and reducing their quality of life, many studies have been conducted for a noninvasive prediction of vertebral compressive strength based on bone mineral density (BMD) determination and recently finite element analysis. In this study, QCT-voxel based nonlinear finite eleme...
متن کاملQuantitative computed tomography in children and adolescents
Methods for quantitative assessment of the skeleton are relevant to the understanding of growth and development during normal childhood and studying the effect of disease and therapy in children with chronic diseases. Dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is currently the most widely available and utilised technique in adults and children. The strengths of DXA are: • The technology is widely a...
