Abstract:
A method and system for processing a radiography image derived from an X-ray radiation passing through an object. The method includes acts of estimating, based on the radiography image, a scatter signal present in said radiography image; calculating, based on the estimated scatter signal, a scatter removal signal indicative of a scattered radiation removable from the X-ray radiation passing through the object by a reference anti-scatter device; and correcting the radiography image based on the scatter removal signal.
