Research

My Ph.D. research project was to develop low-dose X-ray computed tomography techniques, including development of new CT reconstruction algorithms, building noise model of CT sinogram, and development of efficient algorithms to reduce noise and noise-induced artifacts in low-dose CT images. At Stanford, I will be working with Dr. Lei Xing on image-guided radiotherapy techniques including real-time tumor localization using projection images and planning 4D-CT.
