A Method for Validation and Evaluation of Digital Tomosynthesis Reconstruction

Abstract

Tomosynthesis is a tomographic technique for generating a stack of cross-sectional images based on a limited number of two-dimensional projections. A low radiation dose with the advantage of three-dimensional visualization make tomosynthesis a clinically attractive modality. However, a number of parameters has to be adjusted to minimize the visibility of potential artifacts. The current work presents a flexible and realistic method for a validation and evaluation of tomosynthesis in dependency of a variety of imaging parameters.
