- W4295424660 abstract "Objective. X-ray-based imaging modalities including mammography and computed tomography (CT) are widely used in cancer screening, diagnosis, staging, treatment planning, and therapy response monitoring. Over the past few decades, improvements to these modalities have resulted in substantially improved efficacy and efficiency, and substantially reduced radiation dose and cost. However, such improvements have evolved more slowly than would be ideal because lengthy preclinical and clinical evaluation is required. In many cases, new ideas cannot be evaluated due to the high cost of fabricating and testing prototypes. Wider availability of computer simulation tools could accelerate development of new imaging technologies. This paper introduces the development of a new open-access simulation environment for x-ray-based imaging. The main motivation of this work is to publicly distribute a fast but accurate ray-tracing x-ray and CT simulation tool along with realistic phantoms and 3D reconstruction capability, building on decades of developments in industry and academia.Approach. The x-ray-based Cancer Imaging Simulation Toolkit (XCIST) is developed in the context of cancer imaging, but can more broadly be applied. XCIST is physics-based, written in Python and C/C++, and currently consists of three major subsets: digital phantoms, the simulator itself (CatSim), and image reconstruction algorithms; planned future features include a fast dose-estimation tool and rigorous validation. To enable broad usage and to model and evaluate new technologies, XCIST is easily extendable by other researchers. To demonstrate XCIST's ability to produce realistic images and to show the benefits of using XCIST for insight into the impact of separate physics effects on image quality, we present exemplary simulations by varying contributing factors such as noise and sampling.Main results. The capabilities and flexibility of XCIST are demonstrated, showing easy applicability to specific simulation problems. Geometric and x-ray attenuation accuracy are shown, as well as XCIST's ability to model multiple scanner and protocol parameters, and to attribute fundamental image quality characteristics to specific parameters.Significance. This work represents an important first step toward the goal of creating an open-access platform for simulating existing and emerging x-ray-based imaging systems. While numerous simulation tools exist, we believe the combined XCIST toolset provides a unique advantage in terms of modeling capabilities versus ease of use and compute time. We publicly share this toolset to provide an environment for scientists to accelerate and improve the relevance of their research in x-ray and CT." @default.
