Abstract

The invention provides a calculation method of aperture weighting in spiral CT (computed tomography) image reconstruction based on GPU (graphic processing unit) acceleration. The calculation method comprises the following steps of a, determining aperture weighting values of all symmetrical rays of each voxel; b, carrying out the summation of the aperture weighting values of all symmetrical rays of each voxel, and obtaining the aperture weighting value of the voxel; and c, carrying out normalization calculation on the aperture weighting values of all voxels, and obtaining the aperture weighting value after the normalization of each voxel. According to the aperture weighting method, non-smoothness of detection data of an edge detector unit is effectively solved, and a conditional statement is not needed, but the accurate calculation of the aperture weighting and normalized value in multi-layered spiral CT image reconstruction can be realized, thus the quality of a reconstructed image and the efficiency of the reconstruction calculation method are improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to medical image processing technology, in particular to a calculation method of aperture weighting in helical CT image reconstruction based on GPU acceleration. Background technique [0002] The image reconstruction speed of multi-slice spiral CT has always been a hot spot in CT technology research. The more common technologies in the existing acceleration methods can be divided into three types: [0003] The first type is to use CPU clusters for accelerated calculations. For example, a Chinese patent with patent number CN02805089.4 discloses a fast parallel tapered harness reconstruction system and method using one or more microprocessor CPUs. However, this method is only for tapered beam reconstruction, and does not mention the reconstruction schemes related to multi-slice spiral CT, and the CPU is expensive, and the cost to achieve a better acceleration effect is relatively high. [0004] The second type is the use of special ...
