The method is based on the assumption that the magnitude of the inter-pixel phase change is less than /spl pi/ per pixel. Therefore, the authors obtain an estimate of the phase gradient by \"wrapping\" the gradient of the original phase image. The problem is then to obtain the absolute phase given the estimate of the phase gradient. The least-squares (LS) solution to this problem is shown to be a solution of the Poisson equation allowing the use of fast Poisson solvers. The absolute phase is then obtained by mapping the LS phase to the nearest multiple of 2/spl pi/ from the measured phase. The proposed technique is evaluated using MR phase images and is proven to be robust in the presence of noise. An application of the proposed method to the three-point Dixon technique for water and fat separation is demonstrated.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130504739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The authors extend these priors to model the type of smoothness that favors piecewise linear regions. Empirical evidence that this extension is useful is found in animal autoradiographs that show regions of radionuclide density whose structure is far from piecewise flat. The extension uses a \"weak plate\" prior (A. Blake and A. Zisserman, 1987) that allows for piecewise-ramplike regions in the reconstruction. Here, discontinuities include creases-discontinuities in the object gradient rather than in the object itself. To incorporate their new prior in a MAP approach, the authors model the prior as a Gibbs distribution and use a GEM formulation for the optimization. They use mathematical phantoms and a phantom derived from an autoradiograph to illustrate the efficacy of the weak plate prior as compared to more conventional priors.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128809342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Bayesian image reconstruction procedure is presented that uses this a priori knowledge to improve the detection and quantification of an unknown number of lesions. The a priori distribution employed encourages the emission tomography segmentation to stay close to the anatomical segmentation. Departures from the anatomical segmentation are detected by calculating and segmenting a deviances image: Let n/sub i/ be the estimated number of photons emitted from voxel i, /spl mu//sub ri/ the estimated mean activity of the region that contains voxel i, and l(/spl lambda//sub i/;n/sub i/) the Poisson log likelihood function for /spl lambda//sub i/, where /spl lambda//sub i/ is the mean of n/sub i/. The deviances are defined as 2(l(n/sub i/;n/sub i/)-l(/spl mu//sub ri/;n/sub i/)). Parts of the image having large deviances are candidates for becoming new regions. Hypothesis testing is performed to determine which of these candidates are justified by the projection data as being new regions. The procedure was tested by adding hot lesions to a bitmap of the Hoffman brain phantom and then simulating noisy projection data. Improvements in detection and quantification of these lesions were observed as compared to FBP and ML-EM reconstructions.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124919278","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a map can be obtained by estimating the regions occupied by (1) the lungs and (2) the soft tissue and bones, and then assigning values of the attenuation coefficient to each region. The authors propose a method to segment such regions from the Compton scatter and photopeak window SPECT slices of Tc-99m Sestamibi studies. The Compton scatter slices are used to segment the body outline, and to estimate the region of the lungs with the anatomic information on the back bone and sternum locations from the photopeak window slices. To investigate the accuracy of using Compton scatter slices in estimating the regions of the body and the lungs, a Monte Carlo SPECT simulation of an anthropomorphic phantom with an activity distribution and noise characteristics similar to patient data was performed. Different activities were simulated in the lungs to study the influence of lung uptake. Energy windows of various widths were simulated for use in locating a suitable Compton scatter window for imaging. In a separate simulation, the map of the probability of scatter interactions (up to third order) from photons originating at a point within the heart was recorded to allow investigation of the contrast provided by the difference in density between the lungs and surrounding bones and soft tissue. The results demonstrated that (1) sufficient contrast can be derived from Compton scatter data for segmentation of the lungs; (2) accuracy of determination of body and lung regions of about 99% and 89%, respectively, can be achieved and (3) a wide energy window away from the photopeak window for recording the scattered events is preferred for the segmentation of lungs.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"39 9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122809461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The new technique makes it possible fitting all the parameters, e.g., frequencies, decay factors, amplitudes and phases, simultaneously. The corresponding initial values are obtained by linear prediction singular value decomposition (LPSVD)[ 11, which is a completely automatic process without any manual processing. The application of the new fitting technique yields a list of fitted parameters. Since the fitting process is carried out in the time domain, it is possible to fit truncated signals or the ones with shorter duration without a degradation of the resolution. The new technique also enables one to resolve close and overlapping frequency components which can not be resolved by fast Fourier transform (FFT) alone[2]. The FFT is used to provide initial frequencies for some weak components in case of low signal-to-noise ratio, but only as a complementary procedure.","PeriodicalId":287813,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Conference Record Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134526905","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
