This program focuses on the mathematical and computational methods used in Computed Tomography (CT) image reconstruction, specifically exploring back-projection techniques. You will learn the theoretical underpinnings of CT imaging, including the Radon transform and its inverse. The curriculum delves into both unfiltered and filtered back-projection algorithms, emphasizing the impact of different filters (like Ram-Lak, Shepp-Logan, and Hamming) on image quality and artifact reduction. Practical implementation through assignments allows you to gain hands-on experience with these reconstruction methods. The course aims to provide a solid understanding of how 2D images are reconstructed from multiple projections, a fundamental concept in medical imaging and other scientific fields. You will explore the central slice theorem and its application in deriving optimal reconstruction formulas. The program involves working with real-world data, implementing algorithms, and evaluating their performance using various metrics.
Skills gained in CT image reconstruction are applicable in various fields, including medical imaging development, biomedical engineering, research, and data analysis. Graduates may find roles in technology companies, research institutions, and healthcare providers.
