Scatter reduction for grid-less mammography using the convolution-based image post-processing technique [PDF]
Mammography examinations are highly affected by scattered radiation, as it degrades the quality of the image and complicates the diagnosis process.

Characterization of lesions in dense breasts: Does tomosynthesis help?
Context: Mammography in dense breasts is challenging due to lesion obscuration by tissue overlap. Does tomosynthesis offers a solution? Aims: To study the impact of digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) in characterizing lesions in breasts of different ...

Abstract Background Virtual imaging trials (VITs) are in silico studies that simulate medical imaging and disease processes, offering a cost‐effective and reproducible addition to traditional imaging trials. While VITs are well established in breast imaging, most existing implementations simulate imaging based on static anatomical models, capturing ...

Abstract Background Labeled data are used to train, validate, and test deep learning model observers (DLMOs) as well as linear model observers, such as channelized Hotelling observers (CHOs), for image quality assessment in many imaging modalities, including PET imaging. Ideally, these annotations would come from clinical readers, but these readers are

Probabilistic approach to limited-data computed tomography reconstruction
In this work, we consider the inverse problem of reconstructing the internal structure of an object from limited x-ray projections. We use a Gaussian process prior to model the target function and estimate its (hyper)parameters from measured data.
