Radon transform
|
|
===============
|
|
|
|
In computed tomography, the tomography reconstruction problem is to obtain
|
|
a tomographic slice image from a set of projections [1]_. A projection is
|
|
formed by drawing a set of parallel rays through the 2D object of interest,
|
|
assigning the integral of the object's contrast along each ray to a single
|
|
pixel in the projection. A single projection of a 2D object is one dimensional.
|
|
To enable computed tomography reconstruction of the object, several projections
|
|
must be acquired, each of them corresponding to a different angle between the
|
|
rays with respect to the object. A collection of projections at several angles
|
|
is called a sinogram, which is a linear transform of the original image.
|
|
|
|
The inverse Radon transform is used in computed tomography to reconstruct
|
|
a 2D image from the measured projections (the sinogram). A practical, exact
|
|
implementation of the inverse Radon transform does not exist, but there are
|
|
several good approximate algorithms available.
|
|
|
|
As the inverse Radon transform reconstructs the object from a set of
|
|
projections, the (forward) Radon transform can be used to simulate a
|
|
tomography experiment.
|
|
|
|
This script performs the Radon transform to simulate a tomography experiment
|
|
and reconstructs the input image based on the resulting sinogram formed by
|
|
the simulation. Two methods for performing the inverse Radon transform
|
|
and reconstructing the original image are compared: The Filtered Back
|
|
Projection (FBP) and the Simultaneous Algebraic Reconstruction
|
|
Technique (SART).

The forward transform
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
As our original image, we will use the Shepp-Logan phantom. When calculating
|
|
the Radon transform, we need to decide how many projection angles we wish
|
|
to use. As a rule of thumb, the number of projections should be about the
|
|
same as the number of pixels there are across the object (to see why this
|
|
is so, consider how many unknown pixel values must be determined in the
|
|
reconstruction process and compare this to the number of measurements
|
|
provided by the projections), and we follow that rule here. Below is the
|
|
original image and its Radon transform, often known as its _sinogram_:

Reconstruction with the Filtered Back Projection (FBP)
|
|
======================================================
|
|
|
|
The mathematical foundation of the filtered back projection is the Fourier
|
|
slice theorem [2]_. It uses Fourier transform of the projection and
|
|
interpolation in Fourier space to obtain the 2D Fourier transform of the image,
|
|
which is then inverted to form the reconstructed image. The filtered back
|
|
projection is among the fastest methods of performing the inverse Radon
|
|
transform. The only tunable parameter for the FBP is the filter, which is
|
|
applied to the Fourier transformed projections. It may be used to suppress
|
|
high frequency noise in the reconstruction. ``skimage`` provides a few
|
|
different options for the filter.

Reconstruction with the Simultaneous Algebraic Reconstruction Technique
|
|
=======================================================================
|
|
|
|
Algebraic reconstruction techniques for tomography are based on a
|
|
straightforward idea: for a pixelated image the value of a single ray in a
|
|
particular projection is simply a sum of all the pixels the ray passes through
|
|
on its way through the object. This is a way of expressing the forward Radon
|
|
transform. The inverse Radon transform can then be formulated as a (large) set
|
|
of linear equations. As each ray passes through a small fraction of the pixels
|
|
in the image, this set of equations is sparse, allowing iterative solvers for
|
|
sparse linear systems to tackle the system of equations. One iterative method
|
|
has been particularly popular, namely Kaczmarz' method [3]_, which has the
|
|
property that the solution will approach a least-squares solution of the
|
|
equation set.
|
|
|
|
The combination of the formulation of the reconstruction problem as a set
|
|
of linear equations and an iterative solver makes algebraic techniques
|
|
relatively flexible, hence some forms of prior knowledge can be incorporated
|
|
with relative ease.
|
|
|
|
``skimage`` provides one of the more popular variations of the algebraic
|
|
reconstruction techniques: the Simultaneous Algebraic Reconstruction Technique
|
|
(SART) [1]_ [4]_. It uses Kaczmarz' method [3]_ as the iterative solver. A good
|
|
reconstruction is normally obtained in a single iteration, making the method
|
|
computationally effective. Running one or more extra iterations will normally
|
|
improve the reconstruction of sharp, high frequency features and reduce the
|
|
mean squared error at the expense of increased high frequency noise (the user
|
|
will need to decide on what number of iterations is best suited to the problem
|
|
at hand. The implementation in ``skimage`` allows prior information of the
|
|
form of a lower and upper threshold on the reconstructed values to be supplied
|
|
to the reconstruction.
