Comparison of CT noise reduction performances with deep learning-based, conventional, and combined denoising algorithms.

Medical engineering & physics
Conventional noise reduction algorithms have been used in image processing for a very long time, but recently, deep learning-based algorithms have been shown to significantly reduce the noise in CT images. In this paper, a comparison of CT noise redu...

Detectability of Small Low-Attenuation Lesions With Deep Learning CT Image Reconstruction: A 24-Reader Phantom Study.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology
Iterative reconstruction (IR) techniques are susceptible to contrast-dependent spatial resolution, limiting overall radiation dose reduction potential. Deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) may mitigate this limitation. The purpose of our study...

Deep learning image reconstruction to improve accuracy of iodine quantification and image quality in dual-energy CT of the abdomen: a phantom and clinical study.

European radiology
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the effect of deep learning image reconstruction (DLIR) on the accuracy of iodine quantification and image quality of dual-energy CT (DECT) compared to that of other reconstruction algorithms in a phantom experiment and an ...

Contribution of an artificial intelligence deep-learning reconstruction algorithm for dose optimization in lumbar spine CT examination: A phantom study.

Diagnostic and interventional imaging
PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of the new artificial intelligence deep-learning reconstruction (AI-DLR) algorithm on image quality and radiation dose compared with iterative reconstruction algorithm in lumbar spine comput...

Wavelet subband-specific learning for low-dose computed tomography denoising.

PloS one
Deep neural networks have shown great improvements in low-dose computed tomography (CT) denoising. Early algorithms were primarily optimized to obtain an accurate image with low distortion between the denoised image and reference full-dose image at t...

Deep learning-based virtual noncalcium imaging in multiple myeloma using dual-energy CT.

Medical physics
BACKGROUND: Dual-energy CT with virtual noncalcium (VNCa) images allows the evaluation of focal intramedullary bone marrow involvement in patients with multiple myeloma. However, current commercial VNCa techniques suffer from excessive image noise an...

Deep-learning image reconstruction for image quality evaluation and accurate bone mineral density measurement on quantitative CT: A phantom-patient study.

Frontiers in endocrinology
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: To investigate the image quality and accurate bone mineral density (BMD) on quantitative CT (QCT) for osteoporosis screening by deep-learning image reconstruction (DLIR) based on a multi-phantom and patient study.

3D Segmentation Guided Style-Based Generative Adversarial Networks for PET Synthesis.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Potential radioactive hazards in full-dose positron emission tomography (PET) imaging remain a concern, whereas the quality of low-dose images is never desirable for clinical use. So it is of great interest to translate low-dose PET images into full-...
