    摘要: An improvement in image quality when determining an image using iterative reconstruction is provided by taking account of focus shifts. In order to take into consideration the influence of focus shift in calculated projections, several different projections are calculated for each section of the focus path on a section-by-section basis. The several different calculated projections for a section are averaged for comparison with a projection recorded in the section. Improved image quality is provided, for example, in tomosynthesis applications in which a large number of recordings are made with a stationary detector.

    摘要: A method for obtaining a 3D image dataset of an object of interest is proposed. A plurality of 2D X-ray images are captured and a 3D reconstruction is carried out using filtered back projection. The projection parameters have been measured with the aid of a calibrating phantom, possibly using an interpolation or extrapolation of such measurements. A model of effect strings of the components in an X-ray imaging device is obtained, and the model parameters are identified based on imaging of a calibrating phantom. A projection matrix can then be calculated for any positions on any desired trajectories, without having to use imaging of a calibrating phantom at precisely that position and desired trajectory.

    摘要: A method for adapting the brightness of an X-ray image is provided. The X-ray image is recorded using a filter attenuating X-ray radiation used for recording the X-ray image differently in at least two spatial filter regions. The method includes determining image regions mapping the filter regions from filter parameters and recording geometry parameters describing the filter regions from at least one evaluation line running perpendicular to a boundary between image regions. The method also includes determining, for each evaluation line, a correction value describing a difference in brightness between the image regions from an image value profile along the evaluation line in an evaluation area containing the boundary, determining at least one correction factor from the at least one correction value, and adapting the brightness between the at least two image regions by scaling the image values with the correction factor.

    摘要: A method is provided for image processing an angiography data set of a capture region of interest of a patient's vascular system. The method includes establishing a static time parameter set from the angiography data set, wherein the static time parameter set includes time parameters and characterizes the time profile of the contrast agent concentration for picture elements of the capture region described in the image data subsets; establishing a series of mask data sets by picture element-by-picture element application of a window function having a window width of greater than zero; selecting a subinterval in the parameter space covered by the time parameters for each instant of the series to the static time parameter set; and establishing a series of static display data sets by applying the mask data sets to a static vessel data set, which shows a vascular system perfused by the contrast agent in the capture region and which underlies or is derived from the angiography data set.

    摘要: A method of visualizing changes in blood flow in a digital subtraction angiography (DSA) image sequence is disclosed. A time-contrast curve is generated for all pixels in each image of the DSA image sequence. A reference parameter for each time-contrast curve to be used as a first time point is specified. The value of the reference parameter for each time-contrast curve is determined and an arbitrary parameter is specified for each time-contrast curve to be used as a second time point. An output image is generated by applying a color-coding of the difference between the first time point and the second time point to all pixels.
