Non-unique water and contrast agent solutions in dual-energy CT

JP Phillips, Emil Y. Sidky, Fatma Terzioglu +3

The goal of this work is to study occurrences of non-unique solutions in dual-energy CT (DECT) for objects containing water and a contrast agent. Previous studies of the Jacobian o…

Enhancing signal detectability in learning-based CT reconstruction with a model observer inspired loss function

Megan Lantz, Emil Y. Sidky, Ingrid S. Reiser +2

Deep neural networks used for reconstructing sparse-view CT data are typically trained by minimizing a pixel-wise mean-squared error or similar loss function over a set of training…

A signal detection model for quantifying over-regularization in non-linear image reconstruction

Emil Y. Sidky, John Paul Phillips, Weimin Zhou +5

Purpose: Many useful image quality metrics for evaluating linear image reconstruction techniques do not apply to or are difficult to interpret for non-linear image reconstruction.…
