Principles of X-ray Computed Tomography
2017In this chapter, the physical and mathematical principles of X-ray computed tomography are summarised. First, the fundamentals of X-ray physics are covered, with details on generation, propagation and attenuation of X-rays, including a brief introduction to phase-contrast and dark-field imaging.

Dynamic X-ray computed tomography
Proceedings of the IEEE, 2003Dynamic computed tomography (CT) imaging aims at reconstructing image sequences where the dynamic nature of the living human body is of primary interest. The main applications concerned are image-guided interventional procedures, functional studies and cardiac imaging.

X-ray computed tomography (CT), introduced into clinical practice in 1972, was the first of the modern slice-imaging modalities. To reconstruct images mathematically from measured data and to display and to archive them in digital form was a novelty then and is commonplace today.

[Computed X-ray densitometry].
Nihon rinsho. Japanese journal of clinical medicine, 1994Computed X-ray Densitometry (CXD) is a semi-automated method of radiographic densitometry. X-ray photographs of 2nd metacarpal bone, taken with a reference Aluminum phantom, are analyzed by a computed-densitometric machine (Bonalyzer). X-ray films are imaged by a CCD camera and displayed in a screen automatically.

X-ray computed tomography, derived from the Greek meaning 'to write a slice or section', has been commercially available from 1972, after its invention and development by G.N. Hounsfield at the central research laboratories of EMI in 1967. Since then, its impact on the medical world has been as great as the discovery of X-rays itself, and despite the ...

Dose in x-ray computed tomography
Physics in Medicine and Biology, 2014Radiation dose in x-ray computed tomography (CT) has become a topic of high interest due to the increasing numbers of CT examinations performed worldwide. This review aims to present an overview of current concepts for both scanner output metrics and for patient dosimetry and will comment on their strengths and weaknesses.

X-Ray Testing by Computer Vision
2013 IEEE Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Workshops, 2013X-ray imaging has been developed not only for its use in medical imaging for human beings, but also for materials or objects, where the aim is to analyze (nondestructively) those inner parts that are undetectable to the naked eye. Thus, X-ray testing is used to determine if a test object deviates from a given set of specifications. Typical applications

This chapter provides an overview of the use of x-ray and computed tomography (CT)-based imaging for brachytherapy. Treatment planning in brachytherapy requires accurate imaging of both the implanted materials and the surrounding anatomy. Ultrasound (US) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which can provide excellent soft-tissue contrast for ...

Matter is made of elementary particles consisting of a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons surrounded by electrons. The protons are hydrogen nuclei with a positive charge and their number determines the atomic number. The neutrons, which have no electric charge, form with the protons the nucleons which determine the atomic mass.
