Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective was to reduce metal-induced streak artifact on oral and maxillofacial X-ray MDCT images by developing the fast statistical image reconstruction algorithm. When metallic prosthetic appliances exist in the oral cavity, the appearance of metal-induced streak artefacts is not avoidable. Adjacent CT images often depict similar anatomical structures in thin slices. Images were processed by the successive iterative restoration method where projection data were generated from reconstructed image in sequence. The maximum likelihood-expectation maximization algorithm was applied. Next, the ordered subset-expectation maximization was examined. A small region of interest setting was designated. A GPGPU machine and CUDA programming were applied. Algorithms reduced metal-induced artifacts using the sequential processing method. The GPGPU realized the high performance. The CBCT image quality improved in combination with the 3D Gaussian-Laplacian filtering and region growing methods.
