Abstract:Polychromatic reconstruction is a promising technique for quantitative cone-beam computed tomography in radiation therapy. In this study, we have implemented polychromatic forward projection into our reconstruction framework to directly reconstruct relative electron density volumes without the need for additional HU calibration. The underlying spectral model takes beam hardening into account by design. Thereby this extended reconstruction framework is a natural step in the direction of spectral imaging, albeit… Show more
