Implementation of a channelized Hotelling observer model to assess image quality of x-ray angiography systems

Abstract: Abstract. Evaluation of flat-panel angiography equipment through conventional image quality metrics is limited by the scope of standard spatial-domain image quality metric(s), such as contrast-to-noise ratio and spatial resolution, or by restricted access to appropriate data to calculate Fourier domain measurements, such as modulation transfer function, noise power spectrum, and detective quantum efficiency. Observer models have been shown capable of overcoming these limitations and are able to comprehensively… Show more

“…In large part due to the versatility of the Gabor channel CHO as demonstrated in the literature, we previously implemented the 96 Gabor channel CHO used herein to assess technical performance of x‐ray angiography system performance . Under quantum noise‐limited conditions, the model was found to be linear with changes in quantum x‐ray fluence, linear with changes in test object diameter as predicted by the Rose model, and sensitive to the difference in penumbral blur between small and large focal spots during x‐ray angiography magnification imaging.…”

“…Channelized Hotelling observer (CHO) was used to predict and compare the performance of iodine detection in each of the image types: TL, VMI, and iodine map images [1012]. For each image type, the test variable λ is given by: λ=ωitalicCHOtgC where g c is the channel output of the test image and ω CHO is the CHO template defined as: ωitalicCHO=SC-1[gsc¯-gbc¯]…”

“…The efficacy of task-based quality assessment reported in [27], [25], [28] is the motivation behind pioneering research in the field of task-based adaptive imaging. Task-based adaptive imaging has been applied for the optimization of imaging systems parameters [29], [8], [5], optimization of image quality in imaging systems [26], [30], [31], evaluation of cardiac ejection fraction estimation algorithms [32] and the evaluation of diffusion weighted MRI segmentation algorithms [33].…”
