    Abstract: An information processing method of an embodiment is a processing method of information acquired by imaging performed by a medical image diagnostic apparatus, the information processing method includes the steps of: acquiring noise data by imaging a phantom using a medical imaging apparatus; based on first subject projection data acquired by the imaging performed by a medical image diagnostic modality of a same kind as the medical image diagnostic apparatus and the noise data, acquiring synthesized subject data in which noise based on the noise data is added to the first subject projection data; and acquiring a noise reduction processing model by machine learning using the synthesized subject data and second subject projection data acquired by the imaging performed by the medical image diagnostic modality.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided to perform medical imaging in which feature-aware reconstruction is performed using a neural network. The neural network is trained to perform feature-aware reconstruction by using a training dataset in which the target data has a spatially-dependent degree of denoising and artifact reduction based on the features represented in the image. For example, a target image can be generated by reconstructing multiple images, each using a respective regularization parameter that is optimized for a different anatomy/organ (e.g., abdomen, lung, bone, etc.). And a target image can be generated using artifact reduction method (e.g. metal artifact reduction, aliasing artifact reduction, etc.). Then respective regions/features (e.g., abdomen, lung, and bone, artifact free, regions/features) can be extracted from the corresponding images and combined into a single combined image, which is used as the target data to train the neural network.

    Abstract: A photon counting CT apparatus of an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to perform first determination processing of determining spike components in a counting image generated on the basis of sum data of photon detection results for a plurality of different X-ray energy bands and second determination processing of determining ring artifacts on the basis of a plurality of energy images generated on the basis of a photon detection result for each of the plurality of different X-ray energy bands, and remove or reduce ring artifacts in the counting image on the basis of both a result of the first determination processing and a result of the second determination processing.
