Abstract:
Various embodiments of this disclosure provide a medical imaging apparatus and a method of processing a medical image. The medical imaging apparatus includes a data obtainer configured to obtain raw data generated by performing a tomography scan on an object. The medical imaging apparatus also includes a processor configured to obtain, from the raw data, a plurality of pieces of monochromatic image data respectively corresponding to a plurality of energy levels. The processor is also configured to receive an external input that sets a combination of weights respectively applied to the plurality of pieces of monochromatic image data. The processor is also configured to generate a synthetic image by applying the combination of the weights to the plurality of pieces of monochromatic image data. The medical imaging apparatus also includes a display configured to display the generated synthetic image.

Abstract:
A medical imaging apparatus and/or method includes a gantry, a control unit, and a display unit. The gantry has a source for generating an X-ray and a detector for detecting the X-ray passing through an object. The gantry allows the source and the detector to rotate around the object. The control unit obtains operational information of the gantry. The display unit outputs the obtained operational information of the gantry.
