Researchers from California State University describe findings in breast cancer
January 22nd, 2009
"The noise power properties of a cone-beam computed tomography (CT) system dedicated for breast cancer detection were investigated. Uniform polyethylene cylinders of various diameters were scanned under different system acquisition conditions," researchers in the United States report. "Noise power spectra were calculated from difference data generated by subtraction between two identical scans. Multidimensional noise power spectra (NPS) were used as the metric to evaluate the noise properties of the breast CT (bCT) under different system acquisition and reconstruction conditions. A comprehensive investigation of the noise properties was performed in regard to system...
