چکیده

In order to analyze increasingly common 3D image data, new techniques are required. Some of these techniques can be derived from traditional 2D image processing, while others must be created for a particular problem. Using various 3D techniques, we are analyzing high resolution tomographic data of concrete in order to study its fracture energy and permeability. The techniques we are using include: thresholding, boundary finding, connected component analysis and a newly developed technique based on relative motion analysis.

A 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...
