Abstract
We present and evaluate the application of the “Reconstructed Image from Simulations Ensemble” (RISE), a novel tomographic image reconstruction method, in infrared tomography. We demonstrate that established methods of photon emission tomography, widely used with penetrating ionizing radiation, are applicable to infrared radiation. RISE, the method of choice, employs statistical physics concepts and utilizes Monte Carlo techniques to construct the imaged object from its infrared planar projections. The validity of the InfraRed Emission Tomographic (IRET) method is demonstrated, and the efficacy of RISE is evaluated with (A) simulated data and (B) experimental sets of infrared projections obtained from a thermal phantom with an infrared camera. For the simulation studies presented, the reconstructed images obtained with RISE and the well - known Algebraic Reconstruction Technique (ART) and Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization (MLEM) method were evaluated using well-established metrics.
