Abstract:
Preliminary results are presented of a 4d reconstruction algorithm for dynamic
contrast enhanced CT, in a micro-CT based on cone beam geometry. The method is based on
modelling the spatial and temporal distribution of the contrast inside the field of view. TPreliminary results are presented of a 4d reconstruction algorithm for dynamic
contrast enhanced CT, in a micro-CT based on cone beam geometry. The method is based on
modelling the spatial and temporal distribution of the contrast inside the field of view. The use of
non-uniform time sampling with b-splines yielded smooth time-activity curves that captured the
relatively fast rise and fall of contrast in the aorta, as well as the uptake and retention of contrast in
the kidneys[+][-]
