Micro-computed tomography-guided, non-equal voxel Monte Carlo method for reconstruction of fluorescence molecular tomography.
The study of dual-modality technology which combines microcomputed tomography (micro-CT) and fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) has become one of the main focuses in FMT. However, because of the diversity of the optical properties and irregular geometry for small animals, a reconstruction method that can effectively utilize the high-resolution structural information of micro-CT for tissue ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo-based fluorescence molecular tomography reconstruction method accelerated by a cluster of graphic processing units.
High-speed fluorescence molecular tomography (FMT) reconstruction for 3-D heterogeneous media is still one of the most challenging problems in diffusive optical fluorescence imaging. In this paper, we propose a fast FMT reconstruction method that is based on Monte Carlo (MC) simulation and accelerated by a cluster of graphics processing units (GPUs). Based on the Message Passing Interface stand...
متن کاملMonte Carlo method for bioluminescence tomography.
Bioluminescence imaging plays an important role in the areas of cancer biology, cell biology, gene therapy, and so on. The 2D planar bioluminescent imaging has been transformed into a 3D framework by bioluminescence tomography (BLT) that enables bioluminescent source reconstruction in a mouse using a modality fusion approach. To solve this BLT problem, a geometrical model of the mouse is usuall...
متن کاملA reconstruction method for helical computed tomography
This paper presents a method for volumetric reconstruction from Helical Computerized Tomography (H-CT) data which are collected with a fan beam source. An interpretation of the HCT data in terms of the Axial Computerized Tomography (ACT) data is provided. This analysis indicates that the H-CT data for positive and negative detector angles can be combined to form periodically nonuniform hexagona...
متن کاملThorax organ dose estimation in computed tomography based on patient CT data using Monte Carlo simulation
Background: This study presents patient specific and organ dose estimation in computed tomography (CT) imaging of thorax directly from patient CT image using Monte Carlo simulation. Patient's CT image is considered as the patient specific phantom and the best representative of patient physical index in order to calculate specific organ dose. Materials and Methods: EGSnrc /BEAMnr...
