Analysis of angular dependent spatial frequency response of Digital Coplanar Translational Laminography

  • Digital Coplanar Translational Laminography (CTL) is a radiographic imaging technique that permits the visualization of structural details and discontinuities in the object of interest after 3D reconstruction from multiple projections. This technique becomes quite competitive regarding to computed tomography in situations of arrangements in which no complete rotation of the X-ray source - detector system around the object of interest is accessible or in cases where the part to be inspected has a high geometric asymmetry. The literature does not show many studies about image quality for different laminographic reconstructions and scan geometries. Different methodologies for measuring the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) as a key image quality parameter for the aforementioned technique are applied. The MTF was measured using different approaches, presampled MTF or sampled MTF, both based on the Fourier Transform-Magnitude Spectrum or the square wave MTF using line pattern gauges. ADigital Coplanar Translational Laminography (CTL) is a radiographic imaging technique that permits the visualization of structural details and discontinuities in the object of interest after 3D reconstruction from multiple projections. This technique becomes quite competitive regarding to computed tomography in situations of arrangements in which no complete rotation of the X-ray source - detector system around the object of interest is accessible or in cases where the part to be inspected has a high geometric asymmetry. The literature does not show many studies about image quality for different laminographic reconstructions and scan geometries. Different methodologies for measuring the Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) as a key image quality parameter for the aforementioned technique are applied. The MTF was measured using different approaches, presampled MTF or sampled MTF, both based on the Fourier Transform-Magnitude Spectrum or the square wave MTF using line pattern gauges. A sample known as Siemens Star with a converging line pattern was used to measure the circular square wave MTF. This circular MTF provides information on the direction dependent contrast transfer related to the measurement conditions, the reconstruction algorithms and the translational scan direction. For this purpose, several MTF measurements were performed in multiple angular directions. Beyond it, reconstructions were performed using different algorithms (Filtered Shifted Average) and an iterative one (MART – Multiplicative Algebraic Reconstruction Technique). Image quality analysis were done for both reconstruction methods. MART showed an image quality improvement for challenging conditions for laminographic arrangements, such as for a low number of projections (down to 25 for this study, considered as limited view, limited angle reconstruction). Additionally, a Gadolinium gauge with parallel line patterns within a range from 10 μm to 1000 μm was used to compare the square wave MTF with the sine MTFs, measured by the different techniques mentioned above. The results show that the MTF techniques presented are equivalent in this study. The results obtained for this Gadolinium plate showed a good agreement between MTF10% and SRb image measurements. The methodology presented here is used for the characterization of the frequency dependent spatial resolution of measurements obtained from different laminographic reconstruction techniques and scan geometries. Finally, from the acquisitions and reconstructions obtained with the Siemens Star, cross laminographic images were calculated in order to improve the direction dependent sensitivity. The results showed a better detectability for cross laminographic images in comparison to unidirectional coplanar translational laminographic images covering dead zones.zeige mehrzeige weniger
