| SheppLoganAn ImageJ plugin for the creation of the Shepp-Logan phantom.Philippe Thévenaz, Biomedical Imaging Group, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology LausanneFigure 1. A (256x256) version of the original Shepp-Logan phantom. Here, for display purposes, intensity 0.95 has been mapped to 0 (black) and intensity 1.05 has been mapped to 255 (white). The plugin itself generates intensities between 0.0 and 2.0. General DescriptionThe purpose of this plugin is to generate sampled versions of the Shepp-Logan phantom. It is possible to specify the location of the origin (so that the figure may be made symmetric with respect to the center of a pixel or with respect to the boundary between pixels). Unfortunately, what is apparently a typo has crept into the original paper. There, Table I pp. 32 mentions that Ellipse g should have intensity 0.01, while Figure 1 pp. 34 clearly suggests that the intensity of Ellipse g should be instead 0.02, which is apparent both from the caption of Figure 1 and from the figure itself. The SheppLogan plugin can be configured to generate both versions. I. DownloadThis distribution is dated September 30, 2024.

SheppLogan has been written as a plugin for ImageJ. Please read the ImageJ documentation to learn how to install plugins. III. User ManualFigure 2. Dialog. Once the plugin is fired, the dialog shown in Figure 2 appears. The plugin can be run from a macro and is recordable. The Shepp-Logan phantom is parameterized as follows:
