Processing sequence for non-destructive inspection based on 3D terahertz images

by

In this paper, a processing sequence has been developed to achieve automated analysis and measurements from 3D terahertz acquisitions. This sequence first performs a tomographic reconstruction from a 3D acquisition made by a continuous millimetre wave system. This reconstruction is based on the Ordered Subsets Convex (OSC) algorithm and has been optimized for 3D THz tomography. Optimisations consist of i) including the Gaussian beam model in the computation of expected measured intensity, ii) modelling the blank scan and dark-field from measurements and, iii) taking account for these models in the algorithm. The new method, called THz-OSC, outperforms both the BFP and THz-SART reconstructions.

Terahertz radiation for tomographic inspection

by

This paper demonstrate how it is possible to take into account the physical properties of THz waves used in THz CT scan imaging as an improved beam propagation model. This more realistic model is clearly justified by the fact that previous models were simply relying on well-known and commonly applied X-ray reconstruction methods, which assume a ray tracing approach, whereas the THz beam profile is very far from this hypothesis. The model is introduced in several inversion methods as a convolution filter to perform efficient tomographic reconstructions of acquired objects.
