Vector‐Driven Projection and Backprojection

Medical Physics, Volume 53, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Background Projection and backprojection are fundamental operators in tomographic image reconstruction. Existing approaches—namely pixel‐driven (PD), ray‐driven (RD), and distance‐driven (DD)—are subject to well‐known trade‐offs among interpolation artifacts, geometric flexibility, and computational cost. Purpose This study aims to introduce a

PDE4B promotes JNK/NLRP3 activation in the nucleus pulposus and mediates intervertebral disc degeneration

Scientific Reports
Intervertebral disc degeneration disease (IDD) is one of the leading causes of disability, and current therapies are ineffective. Phosphodiesterase 4B (PDE4B) plays essential roles in regulating the activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.
