Abstract
We produce thickness and bone to soft tissue ratio estimations from a single, 2D medical X-ray image. For this, we simulate the scattering of the rays through a model of the object and embed this simulation into an optimiser which iteratively adjusts the model to match the X-ray simulation to the observed X-ray image. Utilising a combination of different techniques, first, a CNN-based image segmentation serves as a regularisation term to the underlying cost function to guide the descent, while domain knowledge about physical parameter correlations is injected by additional penalty terms. Next, the optimiser is embedded into a multilevel framework which, similar to multi-grid's philosophy, successively improves the model on varying resolutions while individual resolutions focus on particular terms of the cost function. Initial results suggest that we can obtain meaningful thickness and material estimations.
