摘要:
A method for producing a base tomographic image and a subsequent tomographic image of an object using projection data acquired in a scan with a system which includes an x-ray source and a detector array which includes a plurality of detectors. The method includes applying a segmentation algorithm to the projection data to generate base image data comprising a plurality of segments; generating image data for each segment; generate subsequent image data based on image data of each segment; and communicating image data, segments, subsequent image data, or base image data to a remote facility via a network. The remote facility provides remote services.
摘要:
The present invention, in one form, is a system for performing image reconstruction from projection data acquired in a helical scan. More specifically, the system implements an incremental reconstruction algorithm for helical scan projection data which does not require filtering, weighting and backprojecting such projection data for generating each image. Particularly, a segmentation algorithm divides the projection into a plurality of segments so that subsequent images are generated by generating image data only for those segments that have changed from the base image.

A system and method for estimating vascular flow using CT imaging include a computer readable storage medium having stored thereon a computer program comprising instructions, which, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to acquire a first set of data comprising anatomical information of an imaging subject, the anatomical information comprises information of at least one vessel. The instructions further cause the computer to process the anatomical information to generate an image volume comprising the at least one vessel, generate hemodynamic information based on the image volume, and acquire a second set of data of the imaging subject. The computer is also caused to generate an image comprising the hemodynamic information in combination with a visualization based on the second set of data.
摘要:
A method for producing an image of an object includes scanning an object with an imaging apparatus to collect projection data of the object utilizing cone sampling. The projection data is rebinned in a row-wise, fan-to-parallel fashion to produce rebinned data and the rebinned data is view-weighted to produce view-weighted data. The method further includes filtering the view-weighted data utilizing a row-wise ramp filter to produce filtered data and generating an image of the object utilizing the filtered data and a three-dimensional (3D) backprojection.

Methods and systems for generating computed tomographic (CT) images from image data acquired during different biological cycles are provided. A computer is programmed to receive a plurality of scan data acquired during a gated acquisition window of each of a plurality of biological cycles, blend the scan data acquired during a first of the plurality of biological cycles with the scan data acquired during a second of the plurality of biological cycles, and construct a final image from the blended data.

A method for reconstructing an image of an object includes generating a plurality of projection data, helically interpolating the projection data, rebinning the helically interpolated projection data from a fan-beam format to a parallel-beam format, and reconstructing an image of the object using the parallel-beam format projection data.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having stored thereon a computer program comprising instructions, which when executed by a computer, cause the computer to acquire an image comprising image data reconstructed from an imaging device. The instructions further cause the computer to apply a bloom reduction algorithm to the image configured to iteratively reduce a blooming of high-density objects in the image.
