iLAB OVERVIEW
Introduction
Today, most medical imaging modalities generate digital images, which can be easily manipulated by
computers. The digital medical image is structural and functional information of human body in digital
form. This laboratory activity focuses on digital picture element, known as pixel , generation. The
digital image consists of pixels. Also, this laboratory creates an image of sine wave with different
spatial frequency and phase.
Generally, the pixel is expressed in the two-dimensional arrays p (m, n) notation, where m is the row
number and n is the column number of that particular pixel. The number of pixels in a digital medical
image is its spatial resolution, which relates to the image quality.
By this point, you have studied X-ray radiography, and you probably see the limitations it has. To
overcome some (but not all) of these limitations, computed tomography (CT) is used. In this lab, you
will see how computed tomography works by using a method calledback projection . You will
determine one-dimensional cross-sections of a slice of the object being imaged at different levels by
combining multiple back projections of the same slice. From these one-dimensional cross-sections, a
two-dimensional slice can be made. Then, several two-dimensional slices will be combined to make a
three-dimensional reconstruction. It is important to note, however, that usually doctors just look at the
two-dimensional cross-sections to gather the information they need. Although three-dimensional
reconstruction makes it easier to see the structure, it provides only minimal new information at the
cost of computer time and memory.
Objective
The objective of this laboratory exercise is to generate a two-dimensional square or rectangular shape
as a basic digital image with varying intensity. Using radon transform to create projection of the digital
image and from projection data, create a CT image by back projection method.
