Cone-beam breast computed tomography (CT) provides true 3D breast images with isotropic resolution and high-contrast information, detecting calcifications as small as a few hundred microns and revealing subtle tissue differences. However,…
Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) using only a few X-ray projection views enables faster scans with lower radiation dose, but the resulting severe under-sampling causes strong artifacts and poor spatial coverage. We address these…
X-ray photon-counting computed tomography (PCCT) for extremity allows multi-energy high-resolution (HR) imaging but its radiation dose can be further improved. Despite the great potential of deep learning techniques, their application in HR…
Deep-neural-network-based image reconstruction has demonstrated promising performance in medical imaging for under-sampled and low-dose scenarios. However, it requires large amount of memory and extensive time for the training. It is…
