Micro-CT workflow optimization based on automatic quality assessment of reconstructed images (61)
A new automaticquality assessment (QA) tool for3D X-ray microtomographic(micro-CT)images is developed and calibrated for use with digital rock analysis. The tool quantifiesseveral critical components of image quality: noise, sharpness, contrast,andtomographic artifacts.Reliable QA results enableoptimization of scanningand reconstruction procedures.
