A key step in Adaptive Radiation Therapy (ART) workflows is the evaluation of the patient's anatomy at treatment time to ensure the accuracy of the delivery. To this end, Cone Beam Computerized Tomography (CBCT) is widely used being…

Cone-beam tomography enables rapid 3D acquisitions, making it a suitable imaging modality for dental imaging. However, as with all X-ray techniques, the main challenge is to reduce the dose while maintaining good image quality. Moreover,…

Cone-beam CT (CBCT) provides on-board volumetric anatomy for image guidance and treatment adaptation in radiotherapy. To compensate for respiration-induced anatomical motion, time-resolved CBCT is highly desired to capture the…

Fourier ptychographic microscopy (FPM) is a promising computational imaging technique with high resolution, wide field-of-view (FOV) and quantitative phase recovery. So far, a series of system errors that may corrupt the image quality of…

Cone Beam Computed Tomography(CBCT) is a now known method to conduct CT imaging. Especially, The Low Dose CT imaging is one of possible options to protect organs of patients when conducting CT imaging. Therefore Low Dose CT imaging can be…

Purpose: To apply a convolutional neural network (CNN) to develop a system that segments intensity calibration phantom regions in computed tomography (CT) images, and to test the system in a large cohort to evaluate its robustness. Methods:…

Multi-source stationary computed tomography (MSS-CT) offers significant advantages in medical and industrial applications due to its gantry-less scan architecture and/or capability of simultaneous multi-source emission. However, the lack of…

Doing quantitative computed tomography (CT) using Bremsstrahlung sources requires an estimate of the spectrum emitted by the X-ray source. One method of beam hardening correction (BHC), as described by Lifton[1], first uses transmission…

X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) is an important tool in medical imaging to obtain a direct visualization of patient anatomy. However, the x-ray radiation exposure leads to the concern of lifetime cancer risk. Low-dose CT scan can reduce the…

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,…

Respiration-correlated CBCT, commonly called 4DCBCT, provide respiratory phase-resolved CBCT images. In many clinical applications, it is more preferable to reconstruct true 4DCBCT with the 4th dimension being time, i.e., each CBCT image is…

Purpose: Photon counting (PC) computed tomography (CT) can provide material selective CT imaging at lowest patient dose but it suffers from suboptimal count rate. A dynamic beam attenuator (DBA) can help with count rate by modulating x-ray…

Attenuation and scatter correction (AC) is crucial for quantitative Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging. Recently, direct application of AC in the image domain using deep learning approaches has been proposed for the hybrid PET/MR…

Multi-MeV flash radiography is often used as the primary diagnostic technique for high energy and density (HED) physics experiments. Primary X-ray which is attenuated by the object offers density information of the object. For a thick metal…

We present a fully automated method of integrating intraoral scan (IOS) and dental cone-beam computerized tomography (CBCT) images into one image by complementing each image's weaknesses. Dental CBCT alone may not be able to delineate…

Computed tomography (CT) images are frequently degraded by acquisition artifacts, including noise, blur, streaking, aliasing, and metal artifacts. Yet CT enhancement is still largely evaluated using image quality metrics with limited…

The presence of metal implants within CT imaging causes severe attenuation of the X-ray beam. Due to the incomplete information recorded by CT detectors, artifacts in the form of streaks and dark bands would appear in the resulting CT…

Metallic implants introduce severe artifacts in CT images, which degrades the image quality. It is an effective method to reduce metal artifacts by replacing the metal affected projection with the forward projection of a prior image. How to…

Compared to single-source imaging systems, dual-source imaging systems equipped with two cross-distributed scanning beams significantly enhance temporal resolution and capture more comprehensive object scanning information. Nevertheless,…

Radiation therapy (RT) requires precise dose delivery over multiple fractions, with CT fundamental for treatment planning due to its electron density information. Repeated CT acquisitions impose radiation exposure and logistical burdens,…
