RECONSTRUCTION OF HEAD PHANTOM’S RANGE IMAGE ACQUIRED BY KINECT CAMERA USING NURBS

In radiotherapy procedure, patient position during treatment time can be monitored from internal patient body for example using EPID (Electronic Portal Imaging Device), but the problem is that this method gives additional radiation exposure to patient. Other method is monitoring from patient surface...

The last step was the reconstruction of mathematical surfaces using NURBS with assumption that all of point’s weights have the same value. The parameters of NURBS were optimized by evaluating roughness and edge slope ratio of reconstructed mathematical surfaces with changing the degree of B-spline functions and an interval between control points. The roughness of the reconstructed surface was calculated by using standard deviation ratio of 10 by 10 ROI in original image and NURBS surface. The higher NURBS degree results had the lower roughness which means that the smoother surfaces were obtained. To quantify edge preservability, the ratio between edge slope of NURBS and original image (reffered to edge slope ratio: ESR) was calculated. Higher ESRs would represent the better edge preserving on the surface. The result shows that surface with a sampling interval 10 points, NURBS degree equal to 3 provided better surface with a roughness 0.0962 and a highest ESR of 0.6919. We concluded that the proposed approach for reconstructing mathematical surfaces can provide smooth surfaces, which may detect patient positioning errors by using the Kinect camera. text
