Transmission tomography

• We are interested in theinner structure of somegiven object.

• We can measure theprojections of the object ofstudy (the densities of theobject along the path ofsome projection beams).

• The goal is to reconstructthe original structure from agiven set of projections.

• Usually done slice-by-slice.

Transmission tomography

• The object of study is represented by a function f (u, v).

f : R2 → R

• We take the line integrals of the image(Radon-Transform).

[Rf ](α, t) =

∫ ∞−∞

f (t cos(α)−q sin(α), t sin(α)+q cos(α)) dq

• We are looking for an f ′(u, v) function that has the sameprojections as the original f (u, v).

Formulation of the reconstructionproblem

• We assume a discrete representation of the object of study(i.e., it is represented on an n × n sized discrete image).

• The projections are given by the integrals of the imagealong a set of straight lines.

Problem with reconstruction

This was the ideal case, which is not so common.

Taking many projection of good quality has high costs.

• High radiation dosage.

• High acquisition time.

• Simply costs much money.

Consequences of the limitations

• Noise in the projections.

• Limited amount of projections.

• Leading to uncertainty of the data.

Handling noise

Easy ways to handle noise

• Use high photon counts.

• Increases radiation dosage and cost.• Makes better measurements.

• Use many projections.

• Might also increases radiation dosage and cost,• Projections average out each other, and suppress noise.

Reconstruction from fewprojections

Sometimes we only have only few projections

Possible causes:

• We want to reduce radiation dosage,

• One projection needs long exposure time (e.g., whenimaging dense objects),

• Exposure damages the object (e.g., crystallography.)

New problems arise

The data is sparse:

• We have less measurements then pixels.

• There are many possible reconstruction, all possibleaccording to projections.

• Algorithms start to ’guess’ and find the wrong result.

Common basic techniques

• Filtered Back-Projection

• Fast method based on mathematical concept. (Filteringand back-projection)

• Needs many projections for good results.

Continuous algebraic reconstruction

• ART, SART, CGLS, etc.

• Iterative equation system solvers,• Slightly better then FBP, but need more time (many

filtering + back-projection cycles).

Discrete algebraic reconstruction

• DART, Energy minimization techniques, etc.

• Iterative equation system solvers, with priors,• Good results, but huge time requirement.

Reconstruction algorithms

Common basic techniques

• Filtered Back-Projection• Fast method based on mathematical concept. (Filtering

and back-projection)• Needs many projections for good results.

Continuous algebraic reconstruction

• ART, SART, CGLS, etc.• Iterative equation system solvers,• Slightly better then FBP, but need more time (many

filtering + back-projection cycles).

Magnetic Resonance Imaging

• Periodic radio signals can change

direction of the nuclei.

• Excitation frequencycorresponds to the atomand magnetic field energy.

• After stopping the radio signalthe nuclei start to return to theiroriginal direction.

• In the process they emitelectromagnetic signals.

• Measuring the attenuation of thesignal gives information on theatoms along a plane in space.

• Having data on enough planesthe task is similar to transmissiontomography.

Noise and lack of data in MRI

Cost of imaging is time

• In MRI imaging every one measurement has distortions(noise).

• It has to be repeated many times.

• The measurement has to be repeated on many planes.

• Each measurement takes time, while we wait for the nucleito get back in order.

• Measurement can be highly time-consuming.

• High resolution imaging can take up to half an our or more.

Problems and possibilities

• Less measurements with more noise?

• More imaging time?

• Advanced algorithms?

Summary

There are many ways to take accurate images of the interior ofobjects.

• The simple way is to take many data (measurement) ofgood quality.

• If the data quality is not good it can be balanced by hugeamount.

• If the amount of data is not sufficient?

• It might be handled by advanced methods.• These methods use extra resources for improved imaging.

• Prior knowledge on the data (takes time to find out goodpriors.)

• Extra computational time to incorporate prior int theimaging.
