An Adaptive Non-Local Means Filtering Method for Denoising CBCT Images Under Low X-Ray Fluence Conditions

Authors: Cem Altunbas, Farhang Bayat

Affiliation: Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Colorado School of Medicine, Taussig Cancer Center, Cleveland Clinic

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
Low dose imaging and scatter rejection hardware in CBCT reduces X-ray fluence incident on the imager, increasing noise, causing photon starvation artifacts in CBCT images. In this work, we...

Assessing the Potential of Virtual Grid Portable Radiographic Systems for Radiation Dose Reduction: A Comparative Evaluation of Deviation Index in Abdominal Imaging

Authors: Gary Y. Ge, Azmul Siddique, Jie Zhang

Affiliation: Department of Radiology, University of Kentucky, University of Kentucky

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Virtual grid technology addresses scattered radiation without a physical grid, offering the potential to reduce patient radiation dose while maintaining image quality. However, this potential...
