  Title Geometrical Calibration of X-Ray Imaging With RGB Cameras for 3D Reconstruction Type Journal Article
  Year 2016 Publication IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Med. Imaging  
  Volume 35 Issue 8 Pages 1952-1961  
  Keywords 3D reconstruction; camera system; geometric calibration; visible fiducials; X-ray imaging  
  Abstract We present a methodology to recover the geometrical calibration of conventional X-ray settings with the help of an ordinary video camera and visible fiducials that are present in the scene. After calibration, equivalent points of interest can be easily identifiable with the help of the epipolar geometry. The same procedure also allows the measurement of real anatomic lengths and angles and obtains accurate 3D locations from image points. Our approach completely eliminates the need for X-ray-opaque reference marks (and necessary supporting frames) which can sometimes be invasive for the patient, occlude the radiographic picture, and end up projected outside the imaging sensor area in oblique protocols. Two possible frameworks are envisioned: a spatially shifting X-ray anode around the patient/object and a moving patient that moves/rotates while the imaging system remains fixed. As a proof of concept, experiences with a device under test (DUT), an anthropomorphic phantom and a real brachytherapy session have been carried out. The results show that it is possible to identify common points with a proper level of accuracy and retrieve three-dimensional locations, lengths and shapes with a millimetric level of precision. The presented approach is simple and compatible with both current and legacy widespread diagnostic X-ray imaging deployments and it can represent a good and inexpensive alternative to other radiological modalities like CT.

  Title Joint Reconstruction of Image and Motion in Gated Positron Emission Tomography Type Journal Article
  Year 2010 Publication IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging Abbreviated Journal IEEE Trans. Med. Imaging  
  Volume 29 Issue 11 Pages 1892-1906  
  Keywords Gating; motion compensation; positron emission tomography (PET); reconstruction  
  Abstract We present a novel intrinsic method for joint reconstruction of both image and motion in positron emission tomography (PET). Intrinsic motion compensation methods exclusively work on the measured data, without any external motion measurements. Most of these methods separate image from motion estimation: They use deformable image registration/optical flow techniques in order to estimate the motion from individually reconstructed gates. Then, the image is estimated based on this motion information. With these methods, a main problem lies in the motion estimation step, which is based on the noisy gated frames. The more noise is present, the more inaccurate the image registration becomes. As we show both visually and quantitatively, joint reconstruction using a simple deformation field motion model can compete with state-of-the-art image registration methods which use robust multilevel B-spline motion models.
