摘要:
A pickup 1 generates a video signal based on an arbitrarily set frame rate. A frame rate converter 2 converts a frame rate of the video signal output from the pickup 1 into a predetermined frame rate. Frame rate conversion information output units 6 and 4 output information on frame rate conversion in a manner corresponding to a video signal after the frame rate conversion.

A method, system, and computer program product for compensating for the unavailability of projection data of a scanned object at a selected point, the selected point located outside a detection range of a detector. The method include the steps of obtaining projection data of the scanned object, and compensating for the unavailability of the projection data at the selected point based on the obtained projection data and coordinates of the selected point relative to the detector. The compensating step includes determining at least one complementary projection angle and coordinates of at least one complementary point based on a source projection angle and the coordinates of the selected point relative to the detector, and estimating the projection data value at the selected point based on the acquired projection data, the at least one complementary projection angle, and the coordinates of the at least one complementary point.

A method for reconstructing an image, including obtaining projection data using an X-ray detector and one of a cone-beam X-ray generator and a fan-beam X-ray generator; filtering the obtained projection data using a ramp-based filtering function to generate filtered projection data; weighting the filtered projection data to compensate for redundant projection data; and reconstructing the image by back-projecting the weighted projection data along a radial path.

A method of determining an image data value at a point of reconstruction in a computed tomography (CT) image of a scanned object, including obtaining projection data of the scanned object, filtering the obtained projection data with a one-dimensional ramp filter to generate ramp-filtered data, and applying a backprojection operator with inverse distance weighting to the ramp-filtered data to generate the image data value at the point of reconstruction in the CT image.

An X-ray computerized tomographic apparatus includes an X-ray tube device configured to irradiate an object to be examined with a pyramidal X-ray beam, a detector which has a plurality of detecting elements arrayed in a slice direction in which X-rays transmitted through the object are detected, a data extending unit which creates virtual data corresponding to an extension region located outside a region in which the detecting elements are arranged in the slice direction on the basis of real data detected by the detecting element, and a reconstructing unit which reconstructs image data on the basis of the real data and virtual data.

An X-ray CT scanning apparatus comprises an X-ray source for irradiating a beam of X-ray to an object to be examined, a detector provided with at least two rows of detector elements for detecting the X-ray beam to have a real data, and a couch driver for traveling in an axial direction of the body of the object a couch on which the object is placed, in which the X-ray beam being irradiated from the X-ray source which is being rotated and simultaneously, the couch being traveled with the couch driver, the object is scanned in a helical direction so that the real data sampled by the detector is not identical in the sweep pattern to its opposite data. Two data located on both sides of the target slicing location may be selected from groups of the real data and their opposite data sampled by the detector and used to interpolate a data at the target slicing location. The group of the real data and their opposite data sampled by the detector may be filtered in the direction of slices to produce a desired data at the target slicing location. Also, a combination of the above three methods can be implemented.

A method of removing an imaging artifact in a medical image, including obtaining a first plurality of images, the first plurality of images collectively defining a first image volume; filtering the first plurality of images to create a second plurality of images, each image in the second plurality of images comprising an average of at least two images in the first plurality of images; selecting a first image from the first plurality of images; adding a lost noise image to a second image in the second plurality of images to create a noise restored image, the second image in the second plurality of images corresponding to the first image in the first plurality of images; determining a gradient image based on pixel values in the second plurality of images, the gradient image comprising a gradient value at each pixel location in the second image; and combining, based on the determined gradient image, the first image and the noise restored image to obtain a corrected image that does not contain the imaging artifact.

摘要:
An X-ray CT system is equipped with a gantry, couch and control cabinet and configured to scan a cone-beam X-ray toward an object along a given orbit to acquire cone-beam data in which a three-dimensional distribution of an X-ray absorption coefficient within the object is reflected. The control cabinet decides a degree of reliability for the cone-beam data according to an acquisition time of the cone-beam data, and then decides a weight for three-dimensional Radon data from the cone-beam data on the basis of the degree of reliability. Using this weight, the control cabinet reconstructs the three-dimensional Radon data based on a three-dimensional reconstruction algorithm. Thus, when the three-dimensional reconstruction algorithm for cone-beam CT is applied to medical CT, artifacts attributable to object's motion can be suppressed and temporal resolution can be improved.
