Alternative Hull Detection Techniques For Preprocessing In Proton Computed Tomography Reconstruction, Blake Edward Schultze
Alternative Hull Detection Techniques For Preprocessing In Proton Computed Tomography Reconstruction, Blake Edward Schultze
Theses Digitization Project
The purpose of this study was to develop computationally efficient hull detection techniques appropriate for image reconstruction using sparse matrices. The hull detection techniques investigated were space carving (SC), modified space carving (MSC), and space modeling (SM) and these were compared to the cone-beam version of filtered back projection (FBP) algorithm in terms of their computation time and the quality of the object hull they produced.

Theses Digitization Project
The primary purpose of this thesis is to discuss the usefulness of image segmentation techniques in creating accurate proton dose distribution plans. The calculation of the proton dose distribution has to take into account the material (tissue, bone, brain) in the treatment area of the patients body.
