Fig. 6

Reconstructed images of the IEC phantom with the same image roughness (IR = 0.15). The reference was for the mCT using 3 iterations, 21 subsets, no post-filtering, 200 × 200 matrix size, and 3.2 × 107 net trues (equivalent to a time acquisition of 120 s). Left: Vision using 4 iterations, 5 subsets, no post-filtering, 440 × 440 matrix size, and 2.4 × 107 net trues (reduction factor = 1.34, time acquisition = 89 s); middle: Vision using 4 iterations, 5 subsets, no post-filtering, 220 × 220 matrix size, and 1.7 × 107 net trues (reduction factor = 1.89, time acquisition = 63 s); right: mCT (reference). Gray scale level is identical for all images. Contrast improvement for the different spheres, as compared to the reference, is listed in Tables 4 and 5.
