software, under development
radiation filtering / upload
upload an archive containing CT images in DICOM format and select radiation intensity thresholds. Use characteristic attenuation ranges for specific materials such as the ones presented in the table below. The application will return the subset of images where detection was sensitive enough. Alternatively, you can use an already uploaded dataset. Take a look at this simple demo
| unit range | tissue |
|---|---|
| >1000 | bone, calcium, metal |
| 100 to 600 | iodinated CT contrast |
| 30 to 500 | punctate calcifications |
| 60 to 100 | intracranial hemorrhage |
| 35 | gray matter |
| 25 | white matter |
| 20 to 40 | muscle, soft tissue |
| 0 | water |
| −30 to −70 | fat |
| <−1000 | air |
$$HU = 1000 * \frac{ (μ_{tissue} - μ_{H_{2}O}) } { μ_{H_{2}O} }$$ where μ is the CT linear attenuation coefficient
