Tomographic X-ray data of a lotus root slice filled with different chemical elements

Tatiana A. Bubba, Andreas Hauptmann, Simo Huotari, Juho Rimpeläinen and Samuli Siltanen

DOI
A picture of two reconstructions from the data by two different methods.
Reconstructions from data by MATLAB routines Lotus_Landweber.m (120 projection angles, on the left) and Lotus_Tikhonov.m (20 projection angles).

This is an open-access dataset of tomographic X-ray data of a slice of a lotus root. The dataset consists of

Also MATLAB code for reconstructions using filtered back-projection, Landweber iteration, and Tikhonov regularization are provided.

Tomographic X-ray data of a walnut

Keijo Hämäläinen, Lauri Harhanen, Aki Kallonen, Antti Kujanpää, Esa Niemi and Samuli Siltanen

DOI
A picture of three reconstructions from the data using different numbers of projections.
"Ground truth" reconstruction computed from 1200 projections using FBP (left), Tikhonov reconstruction from 120 projections (middle), and Tikhonov reconstruction from 20 projections.

This is an open-access dataset of tomographic X-ray data of a walnut. The dataset consists of the X-ray sinogram of a single 2D slice of the walnut with three different resolutions and the corresponding measurement matrices modeling the linear operation of the X-ray transform. Each of these sinograms was obtained from a measured 120-projection fan-beam sinogram by down-sampling and taking logarithms. The original (measured) sinogram is also provided in its original form and resolution.

In addition, a larger set of 1200 projections of the same walnut was measured and a high-resolution filtered back-projection reconstruction was computed from this data; both the sinogram and the FBP reconstruction are included in the dataset, the latter serving as a ground truth reconstruction.

The data is licensed under an open data license (CC BY 4.0) and it is hosted on Zenodo.

This is an open access dataset of tomographic X-ray data of emoji phantom. The dataset consists of

Each of these sinograms was obtained from a measured 60-projection fan-beam sinogram by down-sampling and taking logarithms. The original (measured) sinogram is also provided in its original form and resolution.
