7. Official thesis title: : Research and Development Methods for Denoising Low-dose CT Images
8. Major: Electronics Engineering 9. Code: 9510302.01
10. Supervisors:
1. Assoc. Prof. Nguyen Linh Trung, VNU University of Engineering and Technology.
2. Dr. Trinh Dinh Hoan, Viettel Group; Advanced Institute of Engineering and Technology, VNU University of Engineering and Technology.
11. Summary of the new findings of the thesis:
1) Proposed an efficient algorithm for low-dose CT image denoising, by combining the classical Gaussian filter based and patch-based denoising methods.
2) Proposed an efficient algorithm for low-dose CT image denoising, by adapting existing CNN-based methods for denoising natural and SAR images to CT images in which receptive fields are extended.
12. Practical applicability, if any: Can be applied in enhancing the quality of CT images for diagnosis.
13. Further research directions, if any: Research and develop CNN models for LDCT image denoising that integrates the knowledge of anatomy and pathology of medical experts.
