Non-scanning CT (computerized tomography) CT(computerized tomography) creates 3D views of what is inside General medical imaging technique to look inside of a patient’ body Standard CT system
Background Motivation • CT machines take much time(15~20min) and real-time operation is a challenging issue. • A huge system has been required for scanning mechanism since the first invention. The first inventor of CT, Hounsfield(Nobel Prize winner, 1979) Hounsfield’s sketch
CT Development History 5th ? No scanCompactSafe 1st : Linear & rotational CT 4th: spiral CT or helical CT 2nd : Multiple scanning CT 3rd : Fan-beam CT
Concept for Non-scanning CT Concept of future wearable CT machines A sketch of a next generation CT for next Nobel Prize
Comparison between current and conceptual CTs State-of-the-art CT(Aquilion ONE )Toshiba Medical System, 2006 Conceptual diagram of ascan-free CT For real-time 3D reconstruction
Related Technique Shield Field Imaging (Douglas Lanman, RameshRaskar et al. [2008] ) • Shadow-based 3D reconstruction by a single shot image • Limitation : impossibility to local concave and backside shapes A single shot image Shield Field system 3D Reconstruction Decoupling to multi-view images
Related Technique Tomographic Reconstruction of Transparent Objects ( BorislavTrifonov et al. [2006] ) • 3D reconstruction of a transparent object by tomography • using 72~360 captured images Limitation : Requirement of moving system and many captured images Capturing System One of 360 images Reconstruction Result A glass object
Experimental System 6~16 LEDs and a translucent object are used here. Canon EOS 450D(12M pixels) Schematic diagram of system 150x100 pinhole array (pinhole diameter of 428 microns) Actual system
Non-scanning CT based on light field capturing 3D Reconstruction of transparent objects using visible light with a single shot photo • Limitation : 3D reconstruction in low resolution because decoupled multi-view images are in low resolution, 80x80 A single shot photo Single shot CT for a translucent object 3D shape Reconstruction Decoupling to multi-view images
Decoupling Process Decoupled multi-view images A Single shot LF image Decoding process of a coded 4D light field image
Background Elimination Elimination of background Reference Images
3D Reconstruction by ART Volume Reconstruction by ART(Algebraic Reconstruction Technique) 5 multi-view Images
Experimental Results Multi-view images(resolution is 100x200) 3D reconstruction results
