The PI-methods for Helical Cone-Beam Tomography
Next generation helical cone-beam CT will feature pitches around 80 mm. It is predicted that reconstruction algorithms to be used in these machines with still rather modest cone angles may not necessarily be exact, but rather have an emphasis on simplicity and speed. The PI-methods are a family of algorithms, all of which are based on complete data capture with a detector collimated to the Tam-...
متن کاملGuest Editorial - Multirow Detector and Cone-Beam Spiral/Helical CT
S PIRAL/HELICAL multirow detector computed tomog-raphy (MDCT), also referred to as multislice spiral CT (MSCT), has attracted a major interest since its recent introduction [18], [33]. Compared with single-row-detector systems, MDCT scanners allow faster data collection and thinner slices that support more demanding clinical applications and present new research opportunities. This special issu...
متن کاملReview of Recent Developments in Cone-beam Ct Reconstruction Algorithms for Long-object Problem
Long-object problem and short-object problem both deal with reconstruction problems with truncated conebeam CT projections acquired with a helical path. They have significantly less practical limitations than original exact cone-beam CT reconstruction algorithms which the cone-beam must cover the whole object. The short-object problem can be defined as reconstruction of the whole object having ...
متن کاملPI-line-based image reconstruction in helical cone-beam computed tomography with a variable pitch.
Current applications of helical cone-beam computed tomography (CT) involve primarily a constant pitch where the translating speed of the table and the rotation speed of the source-detector remain constant. However, situations do exist where it may be more desirable to use a helical scan with a variable translating speed of the table, leading a variable pitch. One of such applications could aris...
متن کاملAdvanced single-slice rebinning in cone-beam spiral CT: Theoretical considerations and medical applications
The advanced single–slice rebinning algorithm (ASSR) is a highly accurate and efficient approximative algorithm for cone–beam spiral CT that a) yields high image quality even at large cone angles, b) makes use of available 2D backprojection algorithms/hardware and c) allows for sequential data processing. It uses virtual R–planes (reconstruction planes) that are tilted to optimally fit 180 spir...
