We develop a mathematical framework for the design of orbital trajectories that are optimal
to a particular imaging task (or tasks) in advanced cone-beam computed tomography …

Although tube current modulation (TCM) is routinely implemented in modern computed
tomography (CT) scans, no existing CT simulator is capable of generating realistic images …

Preclinical micro-CT provides a hotbed in which to develop new imaging technologies,
including spectral CT using photon counting detector (PCD) technology. Spectral imaging …

We apply the methodology detailed in “Task-driven source–detector trajectories in cone-
beam computed tomography: I. Theory and methods” by Stayman et al. for task-driven …

Purpose To assess the imaging performance and radiation dose characteristics of the O‐
arm CBCT imaging system (Medtronic Inc., Littleton MA) and demonstrate the potential for …

This paper presents a joint optimization of dynamic fluence field modulation (FFM) and
regularization in quadratic penalized-likelihood reconstruction that maximizes a task-based …

Cone-beam CT (CBCT) systems commonly incorporate a flat-panel detector (FPD) with
multiple-gain readout capability to reduce electronic noise and extend dynamic range. In this …

For image-guided procedures, the imaging task is often tied to the registration of
intraoperative and preoperative images to a common coordinate system. While the accuracy …

Industrial computed tomography systems usually implement circular or helical trajectories,
which are inherently inefficient since they are applied independently of the inspection task …

Purpose Different low‐signal correction (LSC) methods have been shown to efficiently
reduce noise streaks and noise level in CT to provide acceptable images at low‐radiation …
