CBCT Software –
Varex Imaging, a leading supplier of flat panel x-ray detectors used for 2D and 3D imaging, provides a companion image processing library with correction algorithms that are physics-based corrections and both Feldkamp and Statistical CBCT reconstruction in an easy-to-use software toolkit: CBCT Software Tools, or CST for short.
CST comprises a suite of Windows-based software libraries that enables OEMs to quickly develop software that produces high-quality 2D images or 3D reconstructions for industrial applications. Scattered radiation from the part, room, and detector impacts the achievable image fidelity as contrast is reduced, and resolution is degraded. CST has scatter correction algorithms, 2D and 3D VSharp™, as well as a machine learning-based, scatter algorithm that significantly improves image quality in radiography and reconstructed images at industrial x-ray energies. In addition, a multi-material beam hardening algorithm reduces the cupping artifact seen in 3D reconstructed images and improves CT number uniformity. And REA, our resolution enhancement algorithm, removes the impact of scintillator light spread, producing crisper, higher resolution images.
Our tomographic reconstruction software encapsulates individual processing steps into separate plugins. Thus, a host application can use any or all of the plugins provided. At the heart of our cone beam imaging software is the Image Processing Pipeline for simplified integration with parameters stored in standard XML files. This library manages the available plugins and acts as the single interface between an OEM host application and the CST plugins.

Image Processing Pipeline Library Features
• A stable, easy to use API supporting both .NET and C++ host applications
• Over 25 Years, Varex Imaging supplied image processing plugins.
• Supports different panels, geometries, and scan types
• Supports simultaneous acquisition and reconstruction processing

Nearly every product available today has gone through many manufacturing stages, including integrating components from many different companies along the way. Whether you provide raw materials, supply as an OEM, or bring the product to market, everyone is responsible for delivering quality. Varex Imaging’s X-ray detectors and tubes can help ensure material quality and help engineer a better design through research and development or failure analysis should a problem arise.
Varex Imaging understands this is a broad field of applications and requires the right combination of source and detector. Therefore, we offer products that provide the best imaging performance in this exceptionally challenging environment. Varex Imaging sources and detectors are optimized for durability, efficiency, and resolution.

Automatic Exposure Control sensors regulate mA and kV exposure from an X-ray source depending on patient anatomy. Ionization Chambers assist the AEC in determining the output from the X-ray source to maintain consistent image quality and limit the X-ray exposure to patients. Varex Imaging manufactures solid-state AEC sensors and ionization chambers.
