    摘要: An embodiment in accordance with the present invention provides a device and method for a quantitatively calibrated computed tomography scanner. The device includes a gentry configured for receiving a patient or part of a patient. The gentry includes an X-ray source and a detector positioned opposite said X-ray source, such that said detector receives the X-rays emitted from the X-ray source. Calibration phantoms are integrated with the gentry and/or a device within the scanner so as to allow for calibration in quantitative CT measurements of Hounsfield units and/or bone mineral density.

    摘要: Techniques for computed tomography (CT) image reconstruction are presented. The techniques can include acquiring, by a detector grid of a computed tomography system, detector signals for a location within an object of interest representing a voxel, where each detector signal of a plurality of the detector signals is obtained from an x-ray passing through the location at a different viewing angle; reconstructing a three-dimensional representation of at least the object of interest, the three-dimensional representation comprising the voxel, where the reconstructing comprises computationally perturbing a location of each detector signal of the plurality of detector signals within the detector grid, where the computationally perturbing corresponds to randomly perturbing a location of the x-ray within the voxel; and outputting the three-dimensional representation.

    摘要: A method for processing an image of a series of images includes receiving first data representing a first previously reconstructed image and receiving second data representing a second image. A second image is reconstructed in accordance with the first data, the second data and a noise model. The noise model is a likelihood estimation. The second image is reconstructed in accordance with a penalty function. The penalty function is a roughness penalty function. The penalty function is updated by iteratively adjusting an image volume estimate. The penalty function is updated by iteratively adjusting a registration term. The penalty function is a prior image penalty function and the prior image penalty function and a registration term are jointly optimized. The penalty function is determined in accordance with a noise model. The function is a p-norm penalty function.
