Title
Image-based metal artifact reduction in CT images
Abstract
The presence of metal in the scanning field of a CT scanner can create so-called metal artifacts in the reconstructed images. These streak artifacts obscure information about anatomical structures, making it difficult for radiologists to correctly interpret the images or for computer programs to analyze them. Several methods have been proposed in the literature based on the reconstruction of the missing/corrupted projection data using the raw data directly from the tomographs. This paper proposes an image-based strategy consisting of the image registration and the morphological reconstruction. Preliminary results on the CT images from different CT scanners and patients are presented and discussed.
