Application of adaptive non-linear 2D and 3D postprocessing filters for reduced dose abdominal CT.
BACKGROUND Abdominal computed tomography (CT) is a frequently performed imaging procedure, resulting in considerable radiation doses to the patient population. Postprocessing filters are one of several dose reduction measures that might help to reduce radiation doses without loss of image quality. PURPOSE To assess and compare the effect of two- and three-dimensional (2D, 3D) non-linear adapt...
متن کاملa new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot
abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...
15 صفحه اولNonlinear filtering for CT radiation dose reduction
Nonlinear bilateral filters (BF) deliver a fine blend of computational simplicity and blurfree denoising. However, little is known about their nature, noise-suppressing properties, and optimal choices of filter parameters. Our study is meant to fill this gap—explaining the underlying mechanism of bilateral filtering and providing the methodology for optimal filter selection. Practical applicati...
متن کاملRadiation dose reduction with hybrid iterative reconstruction for pediatric CT.
PURPOSE To assess image quality and radiation dose reduction with hybrid iterative reconstruction of pediatric chest and abdominal computed tomographic (CT) data compared with conventional filtered back projection (FBP). MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 234 patients (median age, 12 years; age range, 6 weeks to 18 years) underwent chest and abdominal CT in this institutional review board-appro...
متن کاملRadiation Dose Reduction in Paranasal Sinus CT
Objectives. To (1) compare the radiation dose of low-dose computed tomography (CT) to that of standard-dose CT, (2) determine the minimum optimal radiation dose for use in patients who need endoscopic sinus surgery, and (3) assess the reliability of iterative model reconstruction. Study Design. Prospective single-institution study. Setting. Tertiary care center. Subjects and Methods. We recruit...
