Reconstruction-Independent Resolution Limits in Preclinical Cone-Beam Micro-CT: A Closed-Form Analysis
Falk L. Wiegmann, Nancy L. Ford
The paper derives closed‑form expressions for two reconstruction‑independent limits on spatial resolution in preclinical cone‑beam micro‑CT—one set by photon‑noise (SKE/BKE ideal o…
Visualising Parker Weighting in Short-Scan Cone-Beam Micro-CT: A Practical Reference
Falk L Wiegmann, Nancy L Ford
Short-scan FDK reconstruction is widely used in preclinical cone-beam micro-CT because it reduces scan time and radiation dose, and because the large volume sizes typical of micro-…
Resolution-Noise Characteristics of Common FDK Filter Kernels: A Practical Reference for Preclinical Cone-Beam Micro-CT
Falk L Wiegmann, Nancy L Ford
The ramp filter kernel and cutoff frequency are fundamental parameters of the Feldkamp-Davis-Kress (FDK) algorithm that determine the resolution and noise characteristics of the re…
Benchmarking Open-Source FDK Against Commercial and Iterative Reconstruction Methods for Preclinical Micro-CBCT
Falk L Wiegmann, Nancy L Ford
Preclinical micro-CT reconstruction involves large projection sizes and volumes that make iterative methods costly - 5x to 50x slower than analytic alternatives on modern GPUs. Whe…
