Tomographic 4D Reconstruction of Gas Flows in the Presence of Occluders
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a method that allows for reconstructing non-stationary, time-varying gas flows around moving objects. Our work extends the background oriented Schlieren tomography (3D-BOS) acquisition technique to capture gas flows also in the presence of occluding objects. An algorithm is presented that exploits the unique properties of BOS background patterns to robustly segment occluding objects. Numerical issues in the refractive index field reconstruction are addressed and successfully solved by the new method.

Tomographic Reconstruction of the Ionospheric Electron Density in term of Wavelets
Ionospheric tomography is a method to investigate the ionospheric electron density in two or three dimensions. In this study, the function-based tomographic technique has been used for regional reconstruction of a 3D tomographic model of the ionospheric electron density using the GPS measurements of the Iranian Permanent GPS Network. Two-dimensional Haar wavelets and empirical orthogonal functi...
متن کاملConventional Voxel in Tomographic Reconstruction Based upon Plane-Integral Projections – Use It or Lose It?
Introduction: While the necessity of replacing voxels with blobs in conventional tomographic reconstruction based upon line-integrals is clear, it is not however well-investigated in plane- integral-based reconstruction. The problem is more challenging in convergent-plane projection reconstruction. In this work, we are aiming at utilizing blobs as alternative to voxels. <stron...
متن کاملPerformance Evaluation of FBP Reconstruction in SPECT Imaging
Introduction: The purpose of this study is to define the optimal parameters for the tomographic reconstruction procedure in a routine single photon emission tomography. The Hoffman brain phantom is modified to evaluate the reconstruction method. The phantom was imaged in a 3 and 2-dimensional conformation and the results were compared. Materials and Methods: The 2D phant...
متن کاملA New Approach for Quantitative Evaluation of Reconstruction Algorithms in SPECT
ABTRACT Background: In nuclear medicine, phantoms are mainly used to evaluate the overall performance of the imaging systems and practically there is no phantom exclusively designed for the evaluation of the software performance. In this study the Hoffman brain phantom was used for quantitative evaluation of reconstruction techniques. The phantom is modified to acquire t...
متن کامل4D PET: Beyond conventional dynamic PET imaging
In this paper, we review novel techniques in the emerging field of spatiotemporal 4D PET imaging. We will discuss existing limitations in conventional dynamic PET imaging which involves independent reconstruction of dynamic PET datasets. Various approaches that seek to attempt some or all of these limitations are reviewed in this work, including techniques that util...
