Modeling Technique for Optimizing Simulation Objective Function Based on Key Parameters of the X-ray Imaging System

Published: 21 June 2024 Publication History

Abstract

This paper introduces a simulation process for X-ray imaging systems, emphasizing the optimization of the objective function through critical parameter analysis. The study explores mathematical modeling and computer simulations to bridge the gap between simulated X-ray images and their real-world counterparts, discusses the impact of the properties of X-ray sources, detectors, and imaged objects, as well as their interplay, on the fidelity of X-ray simulation images, aiming to provide valuable insights for advancing X-ray technology applications in both the medical and industrial sectors.
