Abstract:Nuclear imaging modalities like Positron emission tomography (PET) are characterized by a low SNR value due to the underlying signal generation mechanism. Given the significant role images play in current-day diagnostics, obtaining noise-free PET images is of great interest. With its higher packing density and larger and symmetrical neighbourhood, the hexagonal lattice offers a natural robustness to degradation in signal. Based on this observation, we propose an alternate solution to denoising, namely by chang… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
