Artifacts Simulation in CT Images

Introduction:

Computed Tomography (CT) is a powerful imaging modality, but its images often suffer from artifacts that can obscure crucial diagnostic information. Physics-informed artifact simulation offers a promising solution by realistically modeling artifact generation based on underlying physical principles. This approach enables improved artifact understanding, provides realistic training data for machine learning algorithms, and allows for robust evaluation of artifact correction techniques.

This project will focus on exploring state-of-the-art techniques for simulating various types of CT artifacts and investigating their impact on image quality. We will assess the potential of utilizing these simulations to develop advanced artifact reduction methodologies. By further researching this cutting-edge field, we hope to contribute to the continuous improvement of the accuracy and reliability of CT imaging.

Requirements:

  • Completion of Deep Learning is mandatory.
  • Proficiency in PyTorch is essential.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.

Prospective candidates are warmly invited to send their CV and transcript to yipeng.sun@fau.de.

Defect Detection Probability as a Metric for CT Image Quality Assessment

This project focuses on using defect detection probability within CT (Computed Tomography) images as a metric for assessing image quality. Key steps include:

  • Establishing a data preparation pipeline to insert defects into CT volumes sourced from CAD files.
  • Simulating CT scans to replicate imaging processes.
  • Developing a defect detection neural network to analyze CT images and determine the probability of defect presence.
  • Utilizing the defect detection probability as a quantitative metric for evaluating the quality of CT images, with potential integration of trajectory optimization techniques.
