Abstract

Computed tomography (CT) technology and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction technology based on CT both play a significant part in many medical applications such as auxiliary diagnosis and surgery simulation [1]. But the radiation in CT may induce other diseases such as cancer. Therefore, low-dose CT becomes a research hot spot. In low-dose CT images, the random noise is more serious, and the spacing between adjacent CT images is also bigger. These features have brought challenges to the segmentation and 3D reconstruction in low-dose CT images. A new framework of segmentation and 3D reconstruction is proposed in this paper to process low-dose CT images. Then we conduct an experiment with low-dose liver CT images provided by a cooperation hospital in Zhejiang province, and the final results in segmentation and reconstruction are satisfactory.
