Partitioned image filtering for reduction of the Gibbs phenomenon

GL Zeng, RJ Allred - Journal of nuclear medicine technology, 2009 - Soc Nuclear Med
The aim of this paper is to propose a partitioned-image filtering technique that is a new way
of reducing the Gibbs phenomenon in filtered images. Methods: This technique relies on …

Gibbs artifact reduction by nonnegativity constraint

GL Zeng - Journal of nuclear medicine technology, 2011 - Soc Nuclear Med
This paper proposes a 2-step image reconstruction method in which the nonnegativity
constraint in the iterative maximum-likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM) algorithm is …

A method to reduce the Gibbs ringing artifact in MRI scans while keeping tissue boundary integrity

R Archibald, A Gelb - IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging, 2002 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Gibbs ringing is a well known artifact that effects reconstruction of images having
discontinuities. This is a problem in the reconstruction of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) …

Modified iterative model based on data extrapolation method to reduce Gibbs ringing

S Amartur, EM Haacke - Journal of Magnetic Resonance …, 1991 - Wiley Online Library
An iterative algorithm that involves image filtering and data replacement (as suggested by
Constable and Henkelman) is investigated for reducing the Gibbs artifact in magnetic …

Gibbs ringing artifact and spatial correlation in MRI

T Lei, JK Udupa - Medical Imaging 2003: Physics of Medical …, 2003 - spiedigitallibrary.org
Gibbs ringing artifact is a type of image distortion which manifests itself as spurious ringing
around sharp edges. It is an inevitable result of truncating the Fourier Series due to missing …

Gibbs ringing artifact, spatial correlation, and spatial resolution in MRI

T Lei - Medical Imaging 2004: Physics of Medical Imaging, 2004 - spiedigitallibrary.org
Gibbs ringing is an inevitable artifact in MR Fourier Transform (FT) imaging caused by
truncating k-space data via a rectangular window. A common practice is to multiply k-space …

Fourier block noise reduction: an adaptive filter for reducing Poisson noise in scintigraphic images

MJ Guy - Nuclear Medicine Communications, 2008 - journals.lww.com
Objectives Both qualitative and quantitative analysis in nuclear medicine can be
undermined by Poisson noise in low-count clinical images. Whilst the conventional …

Elimination of gridlines by using non-linear filter in mammographic image

T Maruyama, H Yamamoto - IET image processing, 2011 - IET
Mammographic X-ray equipment uses a radiographic grid to remove the scatter radiation
and improve image contrast. The grid causes striped lines to appear on the film and may …
