Inversion of the V-line transform for breast cancer detection with Compton camera
In the recent past, Compton camera became an attractive alternative to the Anger camera in scintimammography, known as nuclear medicine breast imaging or molecular breast imaging. This novel imaging modality leads to the use of the V-line Radon transform, which integrates a function along coupled r...
