See in schedule Download/View SlidesThis project contains an open source Python library for image reconstruction in Axial Computed Tomography (TAC), based on the analytical Radon transforms of some classes of phantoms.
The package is available on GitHub at the following address: https://github.com/francescat93/Exact_sinogram.
The mathematical phantoms are fictitious images, composed of very simple geometric figures (ellipses, squares and rectangles) that, sampled with the Radon transform allows to build a fictitious signal, called (exact) sinogram. Using a phantom gives the advantage to test the reconstruction algorithm on a zero-noise data so the error we get is only due to numerical inaccuracies in the algorithm itself. We want to calculate two reconstructed images from the approximated and exact sinograms, obtained applying the iradon function of the Python library scikit-image on both of them. We expect a smaller error on the exact reconstructed image. This turns to be true on continuous regions, but near the discontinuities of the phantom the Gibbs phenomenon prevents us to obtain the same enhancement.

Hi! I am a math lover and a beginner pythonist. I am currently doing a PhD in Computational Fluid Dynamics at the University of Padova (Italy) and I got my Master Degree in Mathematical Sciences at the Catholic University of Brescia (Italy).
I'm very happy to take part to this conference and to tell you about The Phantom of Radon, this little enjoying project made with some brilliant colleagues!
