摘要:
A tomography apparatus includes a data acquirer which acquires a first image which corresponds to a first time point and a second image which corresponds to a second time point by performing a tomography scan on an object; an image reconstructor which acquires first information which relates to a relationship between a motion amount of the object and the time based on a motion amount between the first image and the second image, predicts a third image which corresponds to a third time point between the first and second time points based on the first information, corrects the first information by using the predicted third image and measured data which corresponds to the third time point, and reconstructs the third image by using the corrected first information; and a display which displays the reconstructed third image.
摘要:
A computerized tomographic image exposure and reconstruction method wherein an object is subjected to irradiation during a relative movement of a source of radiation, said object and a radiation detector and wherein a digital representation of the radiation image of said object is computed by applying a tomographic reconstruction algorithm to image data read out of the irradiated radiation detector. A number of projection images are generated, each of said projection images being generated by integrating X-ray beams continuously emitted during said relative movement through a predefined movement path, and the created projection images are modeled in a tomographic reconstruction algorithm.
摘要:
A method of improving the resolution of images from medical imaging devices by removing blurring due to movement of a patient during a scan. The method uses tracking algorithms to extract movement data from a video image of the patient and uses the movement data to correct the scanner date and remove the effects of movement. Also disclosed is a calibration process to calibrate the movement data to the scanner data.

A method includes performing a motion compensated reconstruction of functional projection data using a patient-adapted motion model, which is generated based on a generic anatomical motion model and imaging data from a structural scan. A system includes a first adapter (202) configured to adapt a generic anatomical model to structural image data, producing an adapted model, a forward projector (204) configured to forward project the adapted model, producing forward projected data, and a second adapter (206) configured to adapt the forward projected data to individual projections of projected data, which is used to generate the structural image data, producing a patient-adapted motion model.

An apparatus comprises: an imaging system (10) configured to acquire emission data from a cyclically varying element; a monitoring instrument (20, 22) configured to measure the cyclical varying of the cyclically varying element; and an electronic device (40) configured to locate an image feature corresponding to the cyclically varying element in the acquired emission data based on correlation of time variation of the emission data with the cyclical varying of the cyclically varying element measured by the monitoring instrument. The located image feature may be verified by: thresholding a projection image generated from the emission data to generate a mask image; identifying in the mask image one of (i) a hollow circular feature, (ii) a hollow oval feature, (iii) a circular cavity feature, and (iv) an oval cavity feature; and verifying the located image feature based on whether the identifying operation is successful
摘要:
A method and system is disclosed for acquiring image data of a subject. The image data can be collected with an imaging system having a detector able to move relative to the subject. A contrast agent can be injected into the subject and image data can be acquired with the contrast agent in various phases of the subject. A volumetric model of multiple phases can be reconstructed selected reconstruction techniques.
