The overall goal of this project was to develop and apply important computerized aids for the design and implementation of Variable Resolution X-ray (VRX) CT scanners developed at the University of Tennessee, Memphis. VRX scanners take advantage of the “projective compression” principle that allows the same device to image objects of very different sizes with the same level of detail by adjusting the field of view and the reconstruction resolution.
The first part of this project aimed to develop a set of computational tools specifically tailored for the design, implementation and study of VRX scanners. This included creating a reconstruction …
