    ICIP-2001 paper proposal: Tomographic Image Reconstruction Using Content-Adaptive Mesh Modeling

    No full text
    In this work we propose the use of a content-adaptive mesh model (CAMM) for tomographic image reconstruction. In the proposed framework, the image to be reconstructed is first modeled by an efficient mesh representation. The image is then obtained through estimation of the nodal values from the measured data. The use of a CAMM can greatly alleviate the ill-posed nature of the reconstruction problem, thereby leading to improved quality in the reconstructed images. In addition, it can also lead to development of efficient numerical reconstruction algorithms. The proposed methods are tested using gated cardiac-perfusion images. Results demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves the best performance when compared to several commonly used methods for image reconstruction, and produces results very rapidly. 1

    MULTI-MODALITY TOMOGRAPHIC IMAGE RECONSTRUCTION USING MESH MODELING 1

    No full text
    In this paper we investigate a mesh-modeling approach for multi-modality image reconstruction. In the proposed approach a mesh model uses information obtained from an anatomical MR image to aid in reconstruction of PET images. The aim is to improve spatial resolution and quantitative accuracy of the PET image by using anatomical boundary information from the MR image. The mesh approach accomplishes this by using spatially adaptive spatial sampling and smoothing in the PET reconstruction. Our preliminary results demonstrate that this mesh-based approach to multi-modality PET reconstruction can achieve good results at low computational cost. 1
