The study entitled “Source-detector trajectory optimization for customized CBCT field of view extension using simulated annealing algorithm”, the master thesis of Hannah Jungreuthmayer MSc. under the supervision of Ass.-Prof. Dr. Sepideh Hatamikia, presented at the SPIE Medical Imaging conference in San Diego 2024, was published as a proceeding paper in Medical Imaging 2024: Image-Guided Procedures, Robotic Interventions, and Modeling; 129281S (2024).
In this study, customized trajectories were developed, which could lead to an extended FOV and enabled improved visualization of anatomical structures in extreme positions while taking into account the available kinematic constraints. This study offers a new approach to improve the diagnostic capabilities of CBCT imaging and thus provides valuable insights into improving patient care in CBCT imaging.
