An experimental study on the noise properties of x-ray CT sinogram data in Radon space

Abstract: Computed tomography (CT) has been well established as a diagnostic tool through hardware optimization and sophisticated data calibration. For screening purposes, the associated X-ray exposure risk must be minimized. An effective way to minimize the risk is to deliver fewer X-rays to the subject or lower the mAs parameter in data acquisition. This will increase the data noise. This work aims to study the noise property of the calibrated or preprocessed sinogram data in Radon space as the mAs level decreases. An… Show more

“…20 Nevertheless, the normal distribution is widely used and has been experimentally validated. For example, Wang et al 21 used the Shapiro-Wilk test 22 to show that the distribution of prereconstruction CT sinogram data is described by a normal distribution with high confidence. The Shapiro-Wilk test is based on the normal probability plot.…”
