Validation of the influence of CT slice thickness on the quantitative accuracy and image quality of single photon emission computed tomography [PDF]
Objective(s): Computed tomography (CT) images are used for precise anatomical location of lesions and for accurate attenuation correction in single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) image reconstruction in SPECT/CT examination.

Quantification of image quality [PDF]
Traditionally, the common window method is used to quantify image quality in optical lithography. The common window method can take dose variation, focus error, mask critical dimension error and aberrations into account. However, the demerit of the common window method is its computation time.

A more effective CT synthesizer using transformers for cone-beam CT-guided adaptive radiotherapy
PurposeThe challenge of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) is its low image quality, which limits its application for adaptive radiotherapy (ART). Despite recent substantial improvement in CBCT imaging using the deep learning method, the image quality ...

Time-sequential Pipelined Imaging with Wavefront Coding and Super Resolution [PDF]
Wavefront coding has long offered the prospect of mitigating optical aberrations and extended depth of field, but image quality and noise performance are inevitably reduced. We report on progress in the use of agile encoding and pipelined fusion of image
