Algorithms for joint activity–attenuation estimation from positron emission tomography scatter

EJNMMI Physics, 2019
Background Attenuation correction in positron emission tomography remains challenging in the absence of measured transmission data. Scattered emission data may contribute missing information, but quantitative scatter-to-attenuation (S2A) reconstruction ...

Diagnosing and mapping pulmonary emphysema on X-ray projection images [PDF]

, 2013
To assess whether grating-based X-ray dark-field imaging can increase the sensitivity of X-ray projection images in the diagnosis of pulmonary emphysema and allow for a more accurate assessment of emphysema distribution.

Computed tomography-osteoabsorptiometry for assessing the density distribution of subchondral bone as a measure of long-term mechanical adaptation in individual joints [PDF]

, 1989
To estimate subchondral mineralisation patterns which represent the long-term loading history of individual joints, a method has been developed employing computed tomography (CT) which permits repeated examination of living joints.

MicroCT reveals domesticated rice (Oryza sativa) within pottery sherds from early Neolithic sites (4150–3265 cal BP) in Southeast Asia

Scientific Reports, 2017
Rice (Oryza sativa) was domesticated in the Yangtze Valley region at least 6000–8000 years ago, yet the timing of dispersal of domesticated rice to Southeast Asia is contentious.

Applications of X-ray computed tomography in textile field

Fushe yanjiu yu fushe gongyi xuebao, 2022
Traditional optical imaging technique used as an analysis method for microstructure can only observe surface and can't achieve 3D characterization of the material interior, which greatly limits its application in textile field.
