METHOD OF PROCESSING COMPUTER TOMOGRAPHY (CT) DATA FOR FILTER BACK PROJECTION (FBP)
20230053052 · 2023-02-16 ·

The present invention relates to a method of processing CT data for suppressing image cone beam artefacts (CBA) in CT images, which are reconstructed from said CT data. For the reconstruction the Frequency Split method is used. However, a straightforward use of this method can lead to an un-desired increase of the residual low-frequency noise left in the basis image after applying image domain de-noising methods. This residual noise then propagates rather linearly to the spectral results. In order to avoid this increase of the noise, the method presented here uses the FS method selectively and yet effectively. Thus, in a first aspect of the invention there is provided a method of processing computer tomography (CT) data for suppressing image cone beam artefacts (CBA) in CT images to be reconstructed from said CT data. The method comprises the steps of obtaining CT data generated during a CT scan of a patient (step S1); decomposing the obtained CT data in the projection domain resulting in a plurality of decomposed sinograms (step S2); and non-uniformly spreading between said decomposed sinograms noise and/or inconsistencies that would lead to image cone beam artefacts (step S3).
