Computed tomography

principles, design, artifacts and recent advances
Forfatter:
X-ray computed tomography (CT) continues to experience rapid growth, both in basic technology and new clinical applications. Seven years after its first edition, Computed Tomography: Principles, Design, Artifacts, and Recent Advancements, Second Edition, provides an overview of the evolution of CT, the mathematical and physical aspects of the technology, and the fundamentals of image reconstruction algorithms. Image display is examined from traditional methods used through the most recent advancements. Key performance indices, theories behind the measurement methodologies, and different measurement phantoms in image quality are discussed. The CT scanner is broken down into components to provide the reader with an understanding of their function, their latest advances, and their impact on the CT system. General descriptions and different categories of artifacts, their causes, and their corrections are considered at length
Note: 
Preliminaries. Image reconstruction. Image presentation. Key performance parameters of a CT scanner. Major components of CT scanner. Image artifacts : appearances, causes, and corrections. Computer simulation and analysis. Helical or spiral CT. Multi-slice CT. X-ray dose and reduction techniques. Advanced CT applications
