Abstract
- Objective: Quantitative technique based on In-line phase-contrast computed tomography with single scanning attracts more attention in application due to the flexibility of the implementation. However, the quantitative results usually suffer from artifacts and noise, since the phase retrieval and reconstruction are independent ("two-steps") without feedback from the original data. Our goal is to develop a method for material quantitative imaging based on a priori information specifically for the single-scanning data. Method: An iterative method that directly reconstructs the refractive index decrement delta and imaginary beta of the object from observed data ("one-step") within single object-to-detector distance (ODD) scanning. Simultaneously, high-quality quantitative reconstruction results are obtained by using a linear approximation that achieves material decomposition in the iterative process. Results: By comparing the equivalent atomic number of the material decomposition results in experiments, the accuracy of the proposed method is greater than 97.2%. Conclusion: The quantitative reconstruction and decomposition results are effectively improved, and there are feedback and corrections during the iteration, which effectively reduce the impact of noise and errors. Significance: This algorithm has the potential for quantitative imaging research, especially for imaging live samples and human breast preclinical studies.
