Abstract

Image reconstruction from projections plays an important role in monitoring flow regimes by ultrasonic transmission mode tomography (UTMT) system. Fast and more accurate methods are necessary in case of on-line process e.g. bubbly flow regimes. In this work, analytical image reconstruction methods such as linear back projection (LBP), filter back projection (FBP) and convolution back projection (CBP) in bubbly flow regime is investigated and found that CBP is superior to other methods. Furthermore, different filters were applied to CBP to investigate the image quality improvement. Among different types of filters for CBP method, Ram-lack outperforms the others for UTMT. The peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) of reconstructed images in this particular experiment was improved using Ram-lack in noiseless data.
