This study aims to investigate the effect of various beam geometries and dimensions of input data on the sparse-sampling streak artifact correction task with U-Nets for clinical CT scans as a means of incorporating the volumetric context…
A major remaining challenge for magnetic resonance-based attenuation correction methods (MRAC) is their susceptibility to sources of MRI artifacts (e.g. implants, motion) and uncertainties due to the limitations of MRI contrast (e.g.…
Dynamic computed tomography (CT) reconstruction faces significant challenges in addressing motion artifacts, particularly for nonperiodic rapid movements such as cardiac imaging with fast heart rates. Traditional methods struggle with the…
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 Computed Tomography (CBCT) is an indispensable technique in medical imaging, yet the associated radiation exposure raises concerns in clinical practice. To mitigate these risks, sparse-view reconstruction has emerged as an…
Limited-angle computed tomography (CT) is often used in clinical applications such as C-arm CT for interventional imaging. However, CT images from limited angles suffers from heavy artifacts due to incomplete projection data. Existing…
In percutaneous orthopedic interventions the surgeon attempts to reduce and fixate fractures in bony structures. The complexity of these interventions arises when the surgeon performs the challenging task of navigating surgical tools…
This paper proposes a sinogram consistency learning method to deal with beam-hardening related artifacts in polychromatic computerized tomography (CT). The presence of highly attenuating materials in the scan field causes an inconsistent…
Purpose: The aim of this phantom study was to evaluate the influence of patient alignment on the image quality by a C-arm flat-panel detector computer tomography (CACT). Materials and Methods: An ACR phantom placed in two opposite…
Artifacts pose a significant challenge in medical imaging, impacting diagnostic accuracy and downstream analysis. While image-based approaches for detecting artifacts can be effective, they often rely on preprocessing methods that can lead…
Modern tomography involves gathering projection data from multiple directions and feeding them into a software algorithm for tomographic reconstruction. We focus our study on image reconstruction from Radon data in the setting of…
Purpose: Cone-beam CT (CBCT) projection images provide anatomical data in real-time over several respiratory cycles, forming a comprehensive picture of tumor movement. We developed and validated a method which uses these projections to…
Diffusion-weighted MRI is nowadays performed routinely due to its prognostic ability, yet the quality of the scans are often unsatisfactory which can subsequently hamper the clinical utility. To overcome the limitations, here we propose a…
As the medical usage of computed tomography (CT) continues to grow, the radiation dose should remain at a low level to reduce the health risks. Therefore, there is an increasing need for algorithms that can reconstruct high-quality images…
Background and Purpose: Voxel-based analysis (VBA) helps to identify dose-sensitive regions by aligning individual dose distributions within a common coordinate system (CCS). Accurate deformable image registration (DIR) is essential for…
Various multi-modal imaging sensors are currently involved at different steps of an interventional therapeutic work-flow. Cone beam computed tomography (CBCT), computed tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance (MR) images thereby provides…
In dental cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), compact and cost-effective system designs often use small detectors, resulting in a truncated field of view (FOV) that does not fully encompass the patient's head. In iterative reconstruction…
X-ray computed tomographic infrastructures are medical imaging modalities that rely on the acquisition of rays crossing examined objects while measuring their intensity decrease. Physical measurements are post-processed by mathematical…
The cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) technique was first inserted in dental imaging 15 years ago. Due to this technique 3D imaging in dentistry has been excessively changed. The purpose beyond using CBCT instead of computed tomography…
Defective and inconsistent responses in CT detectors can cause ring and streak artifacts in the reconstructed images, making them unusable for clinical purposes. In recent years, several ring artifact reduction solutions have been proposed…
