Automatic Robot Joint Offset Calibration
A contact-based calibration technique using a robot-mounted calibration probe, has been experimented with. The probe is to be implemented by utilizing a wrist-mounted force sensor. The technique is based on constraining the sampled robot joint poses to those where the probe end is in controlled contact with a planar surface. The paper illustrates how the technique may be used to achieve a joint...
متن کاملDatabase and data structure for the novel TOF-PET detector developed for the J-PET project
The complexity of the hardware and the amount of data collected during the PET imaging process require application of modern methods of efficient data organization and processing. In this article we will discuss the data structures and the flow of collected data from the novel TOF-PET medical scanner which is being developed at the Jagiellonian University. The developed data format reflects: re...
متن کاملOnline Estimation of B-Spline Mixture Models From TOF-PET List-Mode Data
In emission tomography, images are usually represented by regular grids of voxels or overlapping smooth image elements (blobs). Few other image models have been proposed like tetrahedral meshes or point clouds that are adapted to an anatomical image. This work proposes a practical sparse and continuous image model inspired from the field of parametric density estimation for Gaussian mixture mod...
متن کاملDose Optimization in TOF-PET/MR Compared to TOF-PET/CT
PURPOSE To evaluate the possible activity reduction in FDG-imaging in a Time-of-Flight (TOF) PET/MR, based on cross-evaluation of patient-based NECR (noise equivalent count rate) measurements in PET/CT, cross referencing with phantom-based NECR curves as well as initial evaluation of TOF-PET/MR with reduced activity. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 75 consecutive patients were evaluated in t...
متن کاملDynamic comparison of PET imaging performance between state-of-the-art ToF-PET/CT and ToF-PET/MR scanners
GE Healthcare The goal of the present work was to determine the potential for dose reduction in a new clinical ToF-PET/MR scanner. This was achieved by means of long dynamic phantom acquisitions designed to provide a fair comparison of image quality and lesion detectability, as a function of activity, between the new PET/MR system and a state-of-the art PET/CT. A NEMA body phantom was scanned, ...
